FW: id Last Call comment from i18n

I don't expect to suggest any changes to the CR version,
but I thought I'd pass this on to see if the WG members
have any thoughts.

. . .

We note that the definition of the value of an xml:id attribute is
defined only in terms of a valid NCName as defined by XML 1.0.  The
definition for NCName in XML 1.1 is different.  

We think this consitutes a major defect in the spec in its own right,
but it also has significant internationalization implications for users
of XML 1.1. 

Please specify that the valid value is different in the case of XML 1.0
and XML 1.1.

For the I18N WG,
