Am I missing something or is the spec lacking a description on how to
parse the pseudo-attributes in the <?access-control?> PI?
I could have sworn it was there before but I can't find it now.
It's part of section 4.3 where it is said to be parsed identically to
<?xml-stylesheet?>. That specification is however slightly unclear.
Simon Pieters developed a proposal to address that problem and provide a
generic algorithm for parsing processing instructions with
pseudo-attributes[1], but it's not very clear how to proceed on that
within the W3C.
It's not getting the pseudo-attribute value out of the PI that is
unspecified, it's parsing the value of that PI. I see now that it does
say that the value is a space-separated list of access-items, and
further specifies in step 5 of section 5.2.1 what to do with these items.
