Perhaps the attrbite should be called 'slot', without the '-id', 'slot-list-offset' perhaps. > I don't think we should have slot-id, it isn't stable and I know > that some vendors use random values. But there's still a list with a zeroth element. The list could be returned in different order every time, but that would just make this attribute useless (and so unused) with such a provider, but not harmful. Perhaps we should say that this attribute should always be used in conjunction with the provider library attributes, to ensure that this attribute has the desired semantics. I.e., unless coupled to a library that gives it semantics, this attribute has none. Nico --
