[Bug 2046] R-181 (Datatypes): clarify equality and identity of lists

Some simple test cases have been constructed which illustrate the use of 
singleton lists and atomic values as key and keyref, and in enumerations;
they are on the W3C server, with a test catalogue, in the directory 
http://www.w3.org/XML/Group/2007/12/a.vs.s/ (member-only link).

These test cases may be useful in determining the behavior of current
processors
so as to point out things that need to change.  (The WG's phase-1 decision 
on this issue was not conditional on the behavior of current processors,
but it's nevertheless of interest.  Preliminary tests suggest that some 
processors distinguish atomic values from singleton lists both in the
key/keyref
examples and in the enumeration examples; at least one processor distinguishes
in the key/keyref case and not in the enumeration case.
