>> C004 [S] Specifications of protocols and APIs that involve
>> selection of ranges SHOULD provide for discontiguous selections, at
>> least to the extent necessary to support implementation of visual
>> selection on screen on top of those protocols and APIs.

TAG is pleased by the changes made to this section. We still feel that
there is ambiguity there which would be removed by saying
"discontiguous logical selections" in C004, which is the type of
discontiguity needed for visual selection.
