    public interface Control
    extends ExtensibleElement

    Represents an Atom Publishing Protocol control element.

    The purpose of the control extension is to provide a means for content publishers to embed various publishing-operation specific control parameters within the body of the entry. For instance, the client may wish to mark the entry as a draft, or may wish to ask the publishing server to enable or disable specific extended features for a given entry.

    Per APP Draft-08:

       pubControl =
          element pub:control {
          atomCommonAttributes,
          pubDraft?
          & extensionElement
       }
     
       pubDraft =
         element pub:draft { "yes" | "no" }
     
      The "pub:control" element MAY appear as a child of an "atom:entry"
      which is being created or updated via the Atom Publishing Protocol.
      The "pub:control" element, if it does appear in an entry, MUST only
      appear at most one time.  The "pub:control" element is considered
      foreign markup as defined in Section 6 of [RFC4287].
     
      The "pub:control" element and its child elements MAY be included in
      Atom Feed or Entry Documents.
     
      The "pub:control" element MAY contain exactly one "pub:draft" element
      as defined here, and MAY contain zero or more extension elements as
      outlined in Section 6 of [RFC4287].  Both clients and servers MUST
      ignore foreign markup present in the pub:control element.
