Description Glenn Adams 2011-09-19 02:01:26 UTC 
the current editor's draft, 2.2.2, indicates mandatory support for CDATASection, Comment, ProcessingInstruction, and Text nodes as defined by [DOMCORE] (aka DOM4);

however, all of these interface inherit from the CharacterData interface, which appears to argue for including a dependency upon CharacterData in the DOM interface dependencies listed in 2.2.2

Comment 3 Glenn Adams 2011-11-20 18:08:13 UTC 
I'm withdrawing this, as I understand the Editor does not wish to list 2nd (or greater) order type dependencies.
