It's not at all clear to me that an implementation can always do that, especially in loosely coupled data integration environments. On the other hand, it might be useful to have an error that an implementation can raise if it does notice such an inconsistency - would that satisfy you? I've flagged this for discussion on our WG email list. Jonathan
