And am I right to assume that this linking happens only through the `use'
attribute ? The wording of the paragraph made me think that `sequencing'
and linking through `use' were independent things. 

So 

<style-specification id=x use=y>
<style-specification id=y>

would be a sequence of length two, while
  
<style-specification id=x>
<style-specification id=y>

would just be two independent process specifications, right ?

Understood.
