Remember that this is not a specification, it is a working draft of a specification which (at the moment) is primarily looking for for comments.

It would not be at all productive if people made comments asking for features listed in this section, not realizing that they had already been discussed and decided against. I don't see any reason to keep this in the final spec, but it certainly makes sense at the moment. > Some the grammar and punctuation in the document is dubious to > say the least. It's a draft. It's not expected to be perfect. That's why the editor has requested people to comment on it. If you want to point out specific problems in the language of the doc (as you did), that's fine and helpful, but you shouldn't expect everything to be perfect.
