--- Comment #13 from Liam R E Quin <liam@w3.org> ---
As of F2F (meeting 585)

<jrobie> Jonathan would propose:
<jrobie> 1. map and array constructors preserve nodes, and do not copy them
<jrobie> 2. map and array constructors make copies of maps and arrays
<jrobie> 3. when you persist a map or array that contains nodes, it is
implementation defined whether the identity of nodes is preserved
<jrobie> 4. the distinction between "having identity" and "having the illusion
of identity for the sake of in-situ updates" is major editorial, but editorial,
it's a question of which abstraction is most convenient for our description

DECISION: adopt Jonathan's 4 4 points on map and array constructors from
meeting A-585 agendum 2.1, to reference nodes and otherwise copy, as guidance
to the editors.
