But if we/everybody is convinced, that what I have said (i.e. default
priority of * should be higher than node() ) is correct; and that this
is a better design, then in future version of the language, we can
deprecate the old idea, and adopt the new design.
It would be far too much of a change to make keeping the same syntax
you couldn't make version="3.0" change the priority of node() you'd have
to introduce a new something() test to replace node().
But I don't think there is any problem anyway, there is absolutely
nothing in the language that suggests that in general more specific
matches get a higher default template.
foo[x=1] is clearly more specific than foo[x > 0] but they have the same
default priority. node() and * having the same priority is no different.
