(An appendix is something you can chop off without changing the meaning of the spec, and I think this qualifies.)

I don't really understand this bit about how the trigger is the same. I hope what I came up with above is satisfactory. If not, please make another suggestion. -- Dan Connolly, W3C http://www.w3.org/People/Connolly/ D3C2 887B 0F92 6005 C541 0875 0F91 96DE 6E52 C29E
