I'm scratching my head trying to figure out how any of this would be 
helpful in practice. I'm coming up dry. Anything that simply allows you 
to figure out something in the limited case where the other side uses a 
particular subset of features in coordination can't be relied upon 
because you don't know that the situation will arise when you need it.

	Thanks,
