We didn't miss it exactly.  I saw it--it's at
http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/xml-editor/2007OctDec/0000
but we haven't been dealing with XML errata lately.

Besides, this is more of an enhancement request than
an erratum, and we aren't really entertaining 
enhancement requests for XML at this time, so I'm
not sure how we'd deal with something like this.

But we can discuss this within the WG.
