In my opinion nothing is needed to address this. For one thing, the security concern, as stated, applies to all query grammars, not just basic search, so if the spec addresses it, it either has to say something so general as to be useless, or it can say something about basic search alone. And if we did state a minimum, would it be a SHOULD or a MUST? If a MUST, we'd have to set it fairly low, wouldn't we? -- Jim Davis http://www.econetwork.net/~jdavis jrd3@alum.mit.edu 416-929-5854
