Re: Team A - Please pick at 4.1 SC and write up techniques - or at least notes

I've added a note to the page "DOM generated is formed differently in
different user agents" [1].

There are two items in 4.1.1 [2] that I think might be misleading:

 Parsing HTML unambiguously
* Ensuring that unique ids are specified AND that opening and closing
tags of all elements can be parsed unambiguously.

Parsing XML-based content unambiguously
* Ensuring that the delivery unit is well-formed AND that unique ids
are specified.

They read as though content can only be parsed unambiguous if id
attributes are used, which, of course, isn't a requirement. I think
they should read, "all id attribute values are unique for the
document". I know the preferred language is delivery unit, but there
could be a collection of delivery units and the id attribute values
would need to be unique across all delivery units. Maybe someone
familiar with the language could word it better.

Apologies for this evening's meeting -  won't be back in time from
work. If I can get some time together, I'll try and add some more
notes to the Wiki.
