That's sort of like saying "use of sharp stick should be confined to left eye". I suspect if you want to get specific, we would need to actually specify an example of what you should explicitly support so that implementers can actually hardcode a transform set to allow. Maybe somebody could provide the XPath expressions that would be required? Assuming you had an ID reference to KeyInfo, what would it be? I'm fine with not including the deprecating text, though. I wasn't sure whether the wording of the AI really was intending to have me write that, so I just did it anyway. > (2) Perhaps we can add an id attribute to KeyInfo content to avoid the > need for a transform? We can't. -- Scott
