Ok, I see your point. The draft is not quite clear on what to do with
the information provided by the data categories: especially, we don't
really say what 'adding' means in term of results.

The whole 'adding' part is section 5 is a bit strange. If it refers to
decorating the tree, it should also do that ('add') with the info it
'points' to.

So, for the test result format we should be able to do anything we want,
just like a real application.

I guess, what I'm trying to say is that one cannot have a "generic"
application that does the same thing for all data categories, since we
don't define what 'adding' or 'pointing' really means. Or you have to
make a distinction between the data categories that 'add' info, but from
a finite list and the other ones that 'add' from a non-closed set of
values, and apply different 'add' functions depending on that.
