307229 - group not taking precedence over individual elements all the time

Status: RESOLVED INVALID

(Core Graveyard :: XForms, defect)

(Spec 9.1.1) "Model item properties that apply to form controls apply equally to
group, and take precedence over model item properties applied to individual
members of the group."

(Spec 9.1.1) "When model item properties do apply, they apply to all form
controls within the group.  This means, for instance, that if a group is bound
to an instance data node that is non-relevant, all the child form controls will
also be treated as non-relevant."

The problem I'm encountering is that if a group element is bound to an instance
node that IS relevant, but an individual item is bound to an instance data node
that IS NOT relevant, the individual node's relevancy takes precedence when it
should be the group's.

Reproducible: Always

This behavior has been changed in the errata.  Please check out:
http://www.w3.org/2003/10/REC-xforms-10-20031014-errata.html#E66b

Our behavior on this testcase seems to reflect the errata, so I'm closing this
bug as invalid.
