I think it is extremely useful to define a set of constructs that is guaranteed streamable in every (streaming) processor, even if there is no requirement for every processor to report whether a particular construct is within that subset or not. It's very analogous to our rules on limits. We require processors to handle decimals with 16 digits, but we don't require them to report when a stylesheet is using decimals with more than 16 digits, and is thus straying outside the realm of guaranteed interoperability.
