[Bug 8185] New: fragment Put @Mode="Insert" underspecified

http://www.w3.org/Bugs/Public/show_bug.cgi?id=8185

           Summary: fragment Put @Mode="Insert" underspecified
           Product: WS-Resource Access
           Version: PR
          Platform: All
        OS/Version: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: Fragment
        AssignedTo: public-ws-resource-access-notifications@w3.org
        ReportedBy: gilbert.pilz@oracle.com
         QAContact: public-ws-resource-access-notifications@w3.org


The description of
/wst:Put/wsf:Fragment/wsf:Expression@Mode="http://www.w3.org/2009/09/ws-fra/Modes/Insert"
reads as follows:

"When the Mode attribute is set to a value of
"http://www.w3.org/2009/09/ws-fra/Modes/Insert" the resource representation
specified within the Value element MUST be added to the resource
representation. If the expression targets a repeated element (maxOccurs > 1),
the fragment MUST be added at the end. If the expression targets a non-repeated
element (maxOccurrs = 1) that already exists, the resource MUST generate a
wst:InvalidRepresentation fault. If the expression targets an existing item of
a repeated element, the fragment MUST be added before the existing item."

The above text seems to assume that Value will always target an element,
however it is possible for Value to target an attribute or set of attributes,
etc. It seems that not all @Modes make sense for all target Values.

Strawman Proposal: In each language section (Sections 5, 6, and 7) clearly
identify which targets support which @Modes.
