This is another of those spec interpretation questions. Sorry to populate this list with so many of these questions but this is a source of real irritation for me in the moment. I just want to get sub/superscripts working and do it properly and I am hitting all these "murky" (as Peter put it) things in the spec.

Don't apologise for actually reading the Recommendation, and thinking about it. The fact is that there is not enough of that done by those who are "implementing" the Recommendation, as evidenced by the existence of these bugs in the document. No matter what the interpretation, 7.13.1 and 7.13.2 have editorial bugs which need to be clarified. Think about it. How many commercial implementations are out there? The same bugs are still present in the 1.1 draft. (See Section 7.14).

You found it, so you get to write to the editors. If you are apprehensive about that, talk to me further off-list, or to Glen (who has communicated quite a lot with the editors, and who has popped up again) or Victor.
