           Summary: Clarify ID/IDREF rules for unions and lists

Section 3.15.5 of Structures talks about constraints on values
of type ID and IDREF and IDREFS.  It needs to cover unions and
lists of such values, but it almost certainly should not cover
all values of types constructed from ID or IDREFS:  otherwise
the integer 123 gets put into the ID/IDREF tables whenever it
appears as a value of a type declared as union of ID and integer.

At its meeting of 2005-09-28, the Working Group decided we
need to track this as a separate issue.
