Tables and Photos numeric captions

[rqpe]

Works depending on which time of export, probably a css issue

(An alternative way for numbering without using CSS counters)

If Fidus Writer can put data-* attributes for numbering when exporting HTML, the following HTML+CSS will work:

  <figure id="F74305891" data-category="figure"><img src="images/3664e5be-a2b9-4171-afee-fa6cd0086a2d.png">
    <figcaption><span class="label" data-cat-figure-num="51">Figure</span><span class="text">Components of management</span></figcaption>
  </figure>

figure[data-category='figure'] figcaption span.label[data-cat-figure-num]::after {
    content: ' ' attr(data-cat-figure-num);
}

Hi,
I was aware of the EPUB document size limitation issues, good to know Apple upper limit.
If I understand the Issue note - the data-* attribute would allow us to control numbering counting across a number of types of objects: references, footnotes, figures, tables, etc. 
I would also assume at a later date this would also allow for identifying the different objects and being able to add other features, like: lists of figures, lists of tables. Also possibly back links.
One note on reference lists - some citation styles have a style for showing if a reference is used in more that one place, this would need addressing. Although we could work around issue for the moment.
I will write up the issue of numbering and sorting objects and the options for solving the problem as we need a clear record for our purposes and this is also useful to share with the research community.
Last point. If we use data-* would we still want to output a single HTML file for use by Vivlio?
Thanks
Simon
