------- Comment #1 from pcase@crs.loc.gov  2007-02-26 19:52 -------
The FTTF discussed and determined that implementing 3 nesting levels would
involve the same amount and complexity of work as implementing infinite
nesting, so limiting nesting to 3 levels does not help the implementation
issues that prompted this optional restriction on nesting in the conformance
statement. 

Pat feels that not being able to nest proximity operators would severely reduce
the power of XQuery Full-Text and expects the Library of Congress to submit a
minority opinion if this decision stands.
