boning up on my predicates and patterns, i'm reading
kay, p. 443, which states:
"(chapter//footnote)[1] is not a valid pattern. (Why not?
No good reason, it's just that the spec doesn't allow it."
but on p. 408, there is an explanation of the (apparently
acceptable) path expression "(chapter/para)[1]".
so is it just the difference between using the child axis
and the descendant-or-self axis? it's not obvious to me
why the first should be illegal while the second is legal.
