[UPDATE] Issue 4206 - Updated Framework Proposal Only

Following further review and to address WG comments on Issue 4206, we 
have updated the actual recommendation on changes in the Framework for 
Section 4.5.  We have added one sentence prior to the first example in 
Section 4.5, Policy Intersection that provides a reference back to 
Section 3.2 where aggregate behavior is described.  Statements in the 
actual Description  and Justification have not been updated to reflect 
this updated context.

Once the WG has agreement on this Framework change, we recommend further 
rework on the actual changes needed for the Primer and Guidelines. Note 
that those actual changes have not been included here pending the 
Framework resolution.

Updated Framework Proposal, Section 4.5
Change from:

     Assertion parameters are not part of the compatibility 
determination defined herein but may be part of other, domain-specific 
compatibility processing....

     As an example of intersection, consider two input policies in 
normal form: [example follows]

Change to:

     Assertion parameters are not part of the compatibility 
determination defined herein but may be part of other, domain-specific 
compatibility processing....
     See Section 3.2 for mechanisms for determining the aggregate 
behavior indicated by the assertions.

     As an example of intersection, consider two input policies in
