If you changed that to "All he said was *if* an implementation applies CSS to XML, *and* it supports xml:id, then it SHOULD (I would very definitely say MUST), use xml:id." it would be acceptable, although perhaps misplaced :). However I agree that CSS has no say in whether an XML application that supports CSS should also support xml:id or not, just like it mustn’t specify that an HTML application must support the class attribute. ~Grauw -- Ushiko-san!
