> XSLT is a different language, and seems to warrant its own comments list. I agree that the xquery/xpath case is particularly bad: they're generated from the same source but depending which stylesheet was used to generate the version you're reading you are supposed to send comments to a different place. But I'd argue that xslt should use the same list as xpath. In a combined language like xslt/xpath many comments that reviewers will want to make concern the interface between the languages, or whether particular functionality should be positioned in one language or the other. It is hard to know whether to send such comments to the xpath or xslt list. If the suggestion is that functionality is moved out of xpath and into xslt then xquery would lose the functionality unless it also added an equivalent construct. So more or less any comments in this "interface" area potentially affect all three languages.
