Where will xpointer() apply in case of xml-stylesheet PI presence?

[Hermann Stamm-Wilbrandt <STAMMW@de.ibm.com>]

[1] defines several xpointer schemes:
xpointer, element, xpath1, xpath2, ...
In [2] Simon proposed a css selector scheme.
Browser support for these schemes seems not to exist currently.

[3] defines the fragment identifier of a URI.

Now if the URI references a XML file with a xml-stylesheet PI [4]
generating HTML as here:
http://stamm-wilbrandt.de/en/xsl-list/lines.xml#line=250

and opening this in a web browser it will display line 250
(with id "line=250") in the browser window.

So for generated HTML the fragment identifier references into
the data generated by the xml-stylesheet PI.


This file's (genxml.xml [5])
<?xml-stylesheet href="genxml.xsl" type="text/xsl"?>
<data>
  <row>
    <col>a</col>
    <col>b</col>
  </row>
  <row>
    <col>c</col>
    <col>d</col>
  </row>
</data>

xml-stylesheet PI references genxml.xsl [6] which generates XML document:
<generated>
  <line>1</line>
  <line>2</line>
  <line>3</line>
  <line>4</line>
</generated>


So my question now is what will be referenced by
"http://stamm-wilbrandt.de/en/xsl-list/genxml.xml#xpointer(/*/1)"
if opened in a web browser supporting xpointer() scheme?

Is it the first <row> of genxml.xml?
Or the first <line> of the generated XML?
