 Review comment:
   Add scladoc: 
   Positional and Non-Positional are concepts that apply only to the children 
of separated sequences.
   They are not characteristics of the entire sequence, but of each child term 
of the sequence. 
   
   Positional Behavior - means that separators are required in order to 
determine which child of the sequence group is being parsed/unparsed. 
   
   Positional-Trailing Behavior - Like positional, but with special treatment 
for things at the end of a sequence, where extra separators for absentRep 
occurrences may be tolerated when parsing, but are not created when unparsing. 
A strict behavior applies only for parsing. In this case, there can be extra 
separators for absentRep, but only if they are subsequently followed by a 
non-absentRep (meaning nilRep, emptyRep that is distinct from absentRep, or 
normalRep). For Positional-Trailing behavior to apply, the sequence child must 
be potentially trailing. 
   
   Non-Positional Behavior - means that separators are not required to 
determine which child of the sequence group is being parsed/unparsed. The data 
must make this ambiguous with initiators, or with simply the accepted syntax of 
the data type. 
   
   A sequence child which is an array element with dfdl:occursCountKind fixed 
or expression this has positional behavior regardless of the 
separatorSuppressionPolicy of the sequence. For the occurrences of that 
element, the behavior is as if the sequence had separatorSuppressionPolicy 
'never'. 
   
   A sequence child which is an array element with dfdl:occursCountKind parsed 
has non-positional behavior regardless of the separatorSuppressionPolicy of the 
sequence. For the occurrences of that element the behavior is as if the 
sequence had separatorSuppressionPolicy 'anyEmpty' 
   
   A sequence child which is an array element with dfdl:occursCountKind 
implicit has positional, positional-trailing, or non-positional behavior based 
on several other factors.
