http://www.w3.org/Bugs/Public/show_bug.cgi?id=4574 ------- Comment #1 from chamberl@almaden.ibm.com 2007-05-22 19:25 ------- I am concerned about the proposed phrase "... preserving the sequence and its order." In general, we cannot guarantee that an inserted sequence will be preserved without interleaving. For example, suppose that one expression inserts the node sequence (A, B) and another expression inserts the node sequence (C, D). If (A, B) is inserted first and the other insertion specifies "into" only, a possible outcome is (A, C, D, B). I do not see any practical way to prevent this. Therefore I think we can claim that order is preserved among the nodes inserted by a single expression, but I do not think we can claim that "the sequence" is preserved (in the sense of protecting it against interleaves). --Don
