Maybe it's just me, but I find the numbers in this list confusing -- I
spent some time (not much, honest!) trying to deduce if there was some
kind of arcane sequence or pattern in them, before realising that
they're numbered in alphabetical sequence in the list below.
Do they need to be alphabetically ordered? Why not number them as they
appear in this list? Alternatively, do they need to be numbered at all?
Doesn't this increase the risk that people will start using the numbers
as placeholders for the element labels?
Still, it's encouraging that these ciriticisms are so minor -- the
revised draft is excellent overall!
Cheers,
T.
