[Issue TBD PRIMER] Combined Proposal for Action 256 with Issue 4393 (for Action from Issue 4262)

Everyone,
Another issue was to be opened as a result of resolution of Issue 4262 
related to Primer and questions on understandability and mode. To 
optimize, this was combined with the complementary resolution to Issue 
4393. There is currently no need to open a new issue.

As an additional comment, we may wish to consider a global change 
consistent with the correction in 2. below (to alleviate confusion which 
could exist).

Changes specific to Action 256 are as follows (as outlined in email in 
1. above):
1. Add at the end of Section 3.4.1, Primer just before the last 
statement on domain-specific processing (as a separate paragraph):

    Regardless of mode, the wsp:Ignorable marker does not affect the
    behavior of the client. If the resulting policy contains assertions
    marked with wsp:Ignorable, those assertions the client understands
    are not ignored.

2. Change/correct a bit of existing text in Section 3.4.1, Primer.
Change from:

    When using the strict intersection mode ignorable assertions are
    part of the policy alternative vocabulary, so the |wsp:Ignorable|
    attribute does not impact the intersection result even when the
    |wsp:Ignorable| attribute value is “true”.

Change to:

    When using the strict intersection mode, assertions marked with
    wsp:Ignorable are part of the policy alternative vocabulary, so the
    |wsp:Ignorable| attribute does not impact the intersection result
    even when the |wsp:Ignorable| attribute value is “true”.
