ODF 1.2 Part 1 16.27.27 <number:text-content> underspecified
------------------------------------------------------------

                 Key: OFFICE-3264
                 URL: http://tools.oasis-open.org/issues/browse/OFFICE-3264
             Project: OASIS Open Document Format for Office Applications (OpenDocument) TC
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: Part 1 (Schema), Styles
    Affects Versions: ODF 1.2 CD 05
         Environment: This situation applies to <number:text-content> since the OASIS ODF 1.0 Standard.
            Reporter: Dennis Hamilton
             Fix For: ODF 1.2 CD 06


Setion 16.27.27 states that

"The <number:text-content> element contains any variable text content of a text content."

However, the schema specifies that <number:text-content> is <empty/>, meaning that it has no attributes an no children (including text).

It appears that, unlike <number:text> the <number:text-content> does not contain anything.  Rather, it seems to be a marker for or about something.  This needs to be explained.

For example, here is an use of the element as a child of a <number:text-style> instance in a prominent and presumably-correct implementation of ODF:

        <number:text-style style:name="N5136" number:language="en" number:country="US">
            <number:text></number:text>
            <number:text-content/>
            <number:text></number:text>
            <style:map style:condition="value()&gt;0" style:apply-style-name="N5136P0"/>
            <style:map style:condition="value()&lt;0" style:apply-style-name="N5136P1"/>
            <style:map style:condition="value()=0" style:apply-style-name="N5136P2"/>
        </number:text-style>

Q1: What is a consumer expected to understand about that element?  Does it have something to do with the presence of style:map elements and their style:condition expressions?

Q2: How does a producer know when it is appropriate to provide that element (here or elsewhere).
