Re: [Jsonpath] June interim meeting

[Stefan Gössner <[e-mail]>]

I collected some topics worth discussing from my point of view ...

/* ==========

## Topics - June interims meeting

### Terminology

* *primitive/atomic/simple* value types vs. 
*complex/structured/container* value types. Two common terms seem to be 
needed here.


### Selectors

* Fundamental point is the alternate wording in text ... :
     * ... selects a value.
     * ... selects a node.

Both is possible with Jsonpath, but we should stick with one throughout 
the text.

* Is a dot-member name allowed to start with a DIGIT?
* Are unions allowed to contain wild cards, descendant-selectors and 
filter-selectors ?
* Do we need to specify the order of evaluation of the 
`descendant-selector`?
* Discuss the proposed lean backward compatible syntax `[?<expr>]` in 
contrast to original `[?(<expr>)]`.
* Discuss proposal of `in-op` operator.
* Should comparison with structured values be allowed?
* What's the opinion about supporting functions? Related to this is: How 
to access a specific member in `{...,"key":5,...}` via filter expression 
`[?@...]` ?
