Dennis Hamilton commented on OFFICE-2728:
-----------------------------------------
-1 on the current resolution.
I despair that there is no semantics whatsoever for <db:forms>, <db:reports>, and their constituent <db:component>s and <db:component-collection> and how those constituents might be constrained to suit those purposes. I am also curious how and when the db:as-template attribute is useable with the <math:math> case.
However, perhaps the commenter is simply derailed by the "which can", a clause that, in ISO normative language, merely expresses a possibility in what is essentially a circular definition at best.
I suggest that the following changes be made:
Replace the statements
"""
The <db:component> element specifies a database component which can be either a form or a report.
A database component is either referenced using the xlink:href attribute or it is contained in a child <office:document> or <math:math> element. If the component is contained in a element, the xlink:href attribute needs not exist.
"""
with
"""
When a child <office:document> or <math:math> element is present, that markup provides the component and the xlink:href attribute need not be provided.
When the xlink:href attribute is provided, the component can be obtained or refreshed in accordance with the combined xlink:show="none" and xlink:actuate="onRequest" implementation-defined [XLink] behaviors.. Whether an already-present child element is replaced or is provided as information related to the [XLink]-behavior determination of the component is implementation-defined.
