  <p>This document has been defined jointly by the <a href="http://www.w3.org/Style/XSL/">XSL Working Group</a> and the

                  addition of existential and universal quantifiers
                  to XPath 2.0:</p>

                  <ol>
                    <li>In XPath 1.0, the expression <code>5 &gt;
                    $ns</code> evaluates to true if <code>5</code>
                    is greater than the <code>number()</code> value
                    of at least one node in the <code>$ns</code>
                    node set. There is no way to test whether
                    <code>5</code> is greater than the
                    <code>number()</code> values of all nodes in
                    <code>$ns</code>.</li>

                    <li>In XPath 1.0, the expression <code>$ns1
                    &gt; $ns2</code> evaluates to true if the
                    <code>number()</code> value of at least one
                    node in <code>$ns1</code> is greater than the
                    <code>number()</code> value of at least one
                    node in the <code>$ns2</code> node set. There
                    is no way to test whether the
                    <code>number()</code> values of all of the
                    nodes in <code>$ns1</code> are greater than all
                    the <code>number()</code> values of all nodes
                    in <code>$ns2</code>.</li>

                    <li>In XPath 1.0, the expression <code>5 =
                    $ns</code> evaluates to true if <code>5</code>
                    equals the <code>number()</code> value of at
                    least one node in the <code>$ns</code> node
                    set. There is no way to test whether
                    <code>5</code> equals the <code>number()</code>
                    value of all nodes in <code>$ns</code>.</li>

                    <li>In XPath 1.0, the expression <code>$ns1 =
                    $ns2</code> evaluates to true if the
                    <code>number()</code> value of at least one
                    node in <code>$ns1</code> equals the
                    <code>number()</code> value of at least one
                    node in the <code>$ns2</code> node set. There
                    is no way to test whether the
                    <code>number()</code> values of all of the
                    nodes in <code>$ns1</code> are greater than all
                    the <code>number()</code> values of all nodes
                    in <code>$ns2</code>.</li>

                    <li>In XPath 1.0, the expression <code>0 +
                    LineItem/@UnitPrice &gt; 40</code> is
                    equivalent to <code>0 +
                    number(OrderDetail/@UnitPrice) &gt; 40</code>
                    which will be true if the <i>first</i>
                    <code>LineItem</code> element's
                    <code>UnitPrice</code> attribute is greater
                    than 40. However, the expression
                    <code>LineItem/@UnitPrice &gt; 40</code> is
                    true if <i>any</i> of the <code>LineItem</code>
                    elements' <code>UnitPrice</code> attributes is
                    greater than 40. This difference in behavior
                    could be resolved through explicit
                    quantification.</li>

            precedence decisions about how matches for an explicit
            type would need to take precedence over matches for
            compatible types. In other words, given a template
            matching elements with types compatible to
            <code>Address</code> and another template explicitly
            matching type <code>USAddress</code>, one would expect
            the explicit type match to take precedence. Also
            consider the case where two templates exist, one that
            matches the <code>Address</code> type and one that
            matches the <code>USAddress</code> type. If an element
            of type RuralRouteAddress (further derived from
            USAddress) is considered for matching, one would expect
            the template for the "closest inherited ancestor", that
            is <code>USAddress</code>, to take precendence over a
            template matching the type of a "more distant inherited
            ancestor" like <code>Address</code>.</p>
