Comment for Martin Wunderlich

On a more specific note, I was a bit irritated by the following order of
precedence regarding selections:

   1. Implicit selection in instance documents (data category attributes on a
specific element)
   2. Selections in instance documents (using a documentRules element)
   3. Selections in an external file (using a documentRules element)
   4. In a schema, selections expressed with a documentRules element
   5. Selections expressed with schemaRule (See also the note in Section 4.1.2:
Rule-based Selection)
   6. Selections via defaults for data categories, see Section 5.1: Position
and Default Selections of Data Categories

To me at least it seems that 1. and 2. are going from the more specific to the
more general. From 4. through 5. to 6. it seems to be going from the more
general to the more specific, so the other way around. Then again, maybe that's
only my perception.
