------- Comment #3 from David_E3@VERIFONE.com  2008-01-24 19:18 -------
Proposal: change clause 1 of Attribute Locally Valid and Element Locally Valid
(Element) to add name check.

N.B. by adding the check to clause 1 we avoid having existing error codes
change.

We are aware, as we buy this, that it means code cvc-attribute.1 now has two
distinct meanings.

RESOLUTION:  For bug 5281, we will change clause 1 of Attribute Locally Valid
and element Locally Valid (Element) to add name check, probably get rid of
redunancy e.g. in invocation case, and change status to NEEDS DRAFTING.
