We already mention function items, which do nothing, but one might expect that the value of a map item is to be returned. My suggestion is to make this explicit (even though the rules do already cover this). 100476 1 cmsmcq 2014-02-13 09:58:19 +0000 We discussed this in Prague. ABr clarified that the current rules for function items do clearly have the consequence in text-only copy mode that nothing happens / the empty string is returned. Since some users will expect a different behavior, however, it's worth saying explicitly that for maps nothing happens. No substantive change is now being requested (even by WG members who would have preferred that the built-in text-only copy templates return the text values of maps). So this is essentially an editorial change to the exposition in the text. 101106 2 mike 2014-02-21 14:13:06 +0000 Added clarification: whereever we say that the default rule for functions is to do nothing, we now say "for functions (including maps)...".
