You probably know the answer to this Andrew.
One of the cases we encountered was unique properties vs cumulative
properties.
For a simplistic (i.e. don't quibble to closely, I'm just trying to
explain) example pretend that "ssn" and "comment" are both properties.
On the client side the appropriate behavior for these is different if
the data coming over from the server contains >1 prop element with that
tag.
If the client sees "ssn" twice it winces and then either ignores or
overwrites with the 2nd value.
If the client sees "comment" twice then it appends the additional
comment.
Question: Is this kind of information included in the spec? Uniqueness
vs. cumulative
