At the moment we have only been describing constraints in a hand
waving fashion and no real effort has been taken to identify if a
given constraint is global, local or both.

To start off the discussion lets list the constraints that have been
bandied about so far and try to categorise them.

1. format               global
2. search               local
3. case                 local
4. language             global
5. hold                 global
6. maxhits              global
7. incharset            local
8. outcharset           global
9. authenticate         global
10. password            global
11. name                global

Any others? Comments?
