Update of the IVOA UCD list incorporating items for planetary data

Dear all,
a few points.

If, prompted by Planetary data use cases, we add about 10 em.line.* words,
can we consider adding
em.line.OII (OIII already exists)
em.line.Hepsilon/zeta/eta/theta (going beyond alpha/beta/gamma/delta)
em.line.CaK
em.line.CaH
em.line.Mg
em.line.Na
too?
Otherwise, if you feel that going this way we'll have this em.line.* list
explode, we should think about some policy for adding to it (not for UCD
v1.3 of course).

Then, regarding the added UCDs, I have two specific questions.

The first is about src.orbital.TissJ
If the UCDs should not describe too much in detail a parameter or physical
concept, isn't it too much adding two UCDs for the Tisserand parameter, one
specifically related to Jupiter?

The second is about the phys.particle.* block.
If we are to add neutron/proton/alpha there, why don't we take the chance
to move phys.electron to phys.particle.electron?
I see there's a phys.electron.degeneracy parameter below it, but maybe we
can refactor that branch.

Cheers,
     Marco
