I can't confirm this hasn't already been mentioned, since there is no
2E yet for part 2. However, in reading 1E, I see the following:
Section 3.2.6.1, second paragraph
The values of the Year, Month, Day, Hour and Minutes components
are not restricted but allow an arbitrary integer. Similarly, the
value of the Seconds component allows an arbitrary decimal. Thus,
the lexical representation of duration does not follow the
alternative format of 5.5.3.2.1 of [ISO 8601].
Arbitrary integer? So, like -3? I see nothing that prohibits
P12Y4M-3D except in the last paragraph of this subsection, which is
too chatty to feel normative.
Should the first two quoted sentences above prose not read
The values of the Year, Month, Day, Hour and Minutes components
are not restricted but allow an arbitrary __non-negative__
integer. Similarly, the value of the Seconds component allows an
arbitrary __non-negative__ decimal.
