[From open issue list in Appendix E]

Implementation of SML identity constraints that use the smlfn:deref() function
in sml:field/@xpath expressions is challenging for persistent SML stores built
on top of relational database systems. The standards body to which SML gets
submitted should investigate this and, if needed, explore options to ease the
implementation burden for persistent SML stores using relational databases.
