faq: empty apply-templates?

["Mark D. Anderson" <mda@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

the spec says:
"In the absence of a select attribute, the xsl:apply-templates instruction processes all of the children of the current node,
including text nodes."

followed by some fine print concerning white space.

so does that mean that these are the same:
<xsl:apply-templates/>
<xsl:apply-templates select="*|comment()|text()|processing-instruction()"/>

that is, the ones omitted are: "*@|.|/"

correct?
