VH> In section 3.2.1. The ’vertexMesh' attribute, note 8 it says

VH> So if I want a 7x4 grid I can just say 7 4 instead of 6 3.

VH> CSS can and does restrict <number> values to positive numbers if
VH> needed (positive meaning zero is not allowed; the alternative is
VH> non-negative, which allows 0,1,2 etc).
