Chapter 4 - Editing needed

In Chapter 4 of the XLink Rec the second sentence reads:
"Link markup needs to be recognized reliably by XLink applications in order 
to be traversed and handled properly."

Taken at face value the sentence says that "link markup" is to be 
"traversed".

Chapter 2 indicates that it is an arc that it is traversed.

I suggest that the quoted sentence be edited in some way. Perhaps to read, 
"Link markup needs to be recognized reliably by XLink applications in order 
for arcs to be traversed properly." or "Link markup needs to be recognized 
reliably by XLink applications in order for links to be handled properly."

Or perhaps simply delete the sentence since its likely meanings (once 
corrected) don't say anything that isn't already pretty obvious.
