[2.4] : Data Model (Editorial comments)

["G. Ken Holman" <gkholman@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

(1) Typo - I think the first bullet of the 2.4 introduction should be
singular "root node" and not plural, since the fact there is only one is
described later, someone seeing this list might think there is more than
one.  If a future version of the specification allows for multiple input
documents, then the plural is appropriate in this list, but then 2.4.1
would need to change to plural and the prose would be along the lines of
"... root of a tree ..."

(2) Duplicate definition - the last phrase of 2.4.5 reads:

"... after whitespace is stripped from both using the process described
with the set of whitespace-preserving element types consisting of just
xsl:text"

Would it be more resilient to future changes in the specification if it
read as follows?

"... after whitespace is stripped from both using the process described
with the set of whitespace-preserving element types being the same set as
applies to stylesheets."

This will allow the set to be defined once and not have to be re-iterated
elsewhere.
