[Bug 4755] SMLIF section 3.3.6 some fragment URI cases not covered

http://www.w3.org/Bugs/Public/show_bug.cgi?id=4755

           Summary: SMLIF section 3.3.6 some fragment URI cases not covered
           Product: SML
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: PC
        OS/Version: Windows XP
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: Interchange Format
        AssignedTo: cmsmcq@w3.org
        ReportedBy: johnarwe@us.ibm.com

context: If the URI representing a resolved inter-document reference has a
fragment, the reference is to the element obtained by applying the fragment to
the referred-to document starting with its root element.

Since SMLIF does not require that the model being exchanged is a valid SML
model, a fragment may resolve to any of the following:
0 elements
1 element
>1 element

Existing text assumes only 1 element is possible.  Need to cover other cases. 
Other cases cannot occur if the SMLIF document is also a valid SML model, but
3.2 explicitly says SMLIF does not require the interchange set to form a valid
SML model.
