RE: [ubl-lcsc] Re: Position Paper on List Containers
Tony/Tim:

Just a note on the performance issues related to list containers:

List containers improve any DOM-based processing by reducing the number
of iterations needed to match items *other* than the items in the list,
by allowing an entire large list of children to be ignored using a
single test, on the container, rather than on each of its children.

This was the original reason for arguing that we needed list containers,
way back when.

Cheers,
