["Dale Worley" <[e-mail]>]

The syntax for hi-index restricts each component to be a single digit:

   hi-index = "index" EQUAL 1*DIGIT *("." 1*DIGIT)

I think this is problematic because it allows only nine forks of a
request.  Better would be to allow integers.  I propose that integers
through 999 be allowed, on the grounds that 99 should be more than
sufficient, so this leaves plenty of headroom, and that numbers through
999 can be stored in small binary formats.

The BNF would be changed to:

   hi-index = "index" EQUAL hi-component *("." hi-component)

   hi-component = %x31-39 0*2DIGIT

There are four instances of "digit(s)" in the text that would be
replaced by "integer(s)".
