           Summary: Possible inconsistency in compatibility of update
                    primitives
           Product: XPath / XQuery / XSLT

The current compatibility table invalidates certain possibilities of update
primitives when the target node is the same. Apart from the equality relation
between the target nodes, parent relationship among the target nodes of certain
primitives operations can also create problems (one which compatibility table
wants to avoid). For e.g. 
should insAft(t1, r1) be incompatible with insAsLast(t2, r2) and insInto(t2,
r2) if t1 is the last child of t2.
