ORA-XQ-121-B: 3.7.1.3 "content": discrepancy with 3.7.3.1 "computed element constructors"

SECTION 3.7.1.3: content

Regarding step 3) in 3.7.1.3 on attribute nodes: at this point in section
3.7.3.1 "Computed element constructors", it talks about the
possibility of having namespace nodes at the beginning of the
content sequence, whereas this section is simply silent about them.
Taken literally, that seems to mean that any namespace nodes
left in the content sequence are still present at step 5) and 
consequently become either "children" or "attributes" of the
element.  It seems highly likely that you either mean to treat
namespace nodes as an error, or else handle them the same as
in section 3.7.3.1.
