RE: BACKWARDS INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE PROPOSAL

The code used to create the examples is not an issue, the change is one
line.

I agree. IMHO, if one needs to refer to an ID type in the same document, one
can use IDREF and if ID type attribute is in other document, one can use
NCName. This seems like a natural choice as compared to anyURI approach.

Further to this point I am now convinced that we MUST make the change.
 
A reference of the form RequestID="#xyz" is to a section of a document and
not a document reference. In addition as the stem is not specified the
default is the message itself.
 
I now believe that the issue is actually a bug rather than a cosmetic issue.
We are not strictly XML compliant. i would prefer to fix that before we get
into interop.
