Ah. So, fooattr="inherit" <=> fooattr="from-parent(fooattr)", whereas 
I expected it to be "from-nearest-specified-value()". BTW, as far as the 
these two functions are concerned: are there any limits on their use? 
And consequently, may I conclude that _every_ feature that happens
on a node may also be specified on any of its ancestors on the tree?
