Comment: 
The definition of flow of content as 'representing how the nodes of the element should be treated as a single unit for linguistic purposes' is not only hard to read, but doesn't tell me anything about its intended use. Could we be talking about identifying noun phrases?


I think we are talking about identifying translation unit segmentation breaks. If this is the case, please make that clear. I think people reading this could be either unclear about its intent, or misunderstand in such a way that it is implemented for all sorts of uninteroperable structural definitions of the content.
