I disagree - I have yet to see a data transformation/extraction
application get in trouble because there were too many element names -
but I think that neither of us can claim that there's a really large
body of evidence to back up our positions. This is why I'm unhappy that
the XQuery WG is charging down the path of building a type-centric
schema-centric system bulging with unnecessary complexity, on the basis
of this speculative hypothesis. -Tim
