Hi all,

Comments against TMQL draft dtd. 2007-07-13.

Acc. to the *grammar*, the following queries are valid:

     24 << types

     "Hello World" >> supertypes

     42.0 -> member

The texts gives the impression that at least the latter is undefined,
but it would be nice if the grammar can reflect that.

As far as I can see, the only use case were an atom should be allowed
in front of a 'step' is the 'atomification' (resp. de-atomification)
axes. For all other axes an atom seems to be useless.

IMO a more explicit grammar would be helpful, even if it increases the
productions.

Best regards,
Lars
