Summary0007298: "XML fragment" is confusing in XmlElement binary encoding description
Description

(5.2.2.8) XmlElement currently has this text: "An XmlElement is an XML fragment serialized as UTF-8 string and then encoded as ByteString."

The word "fragment" should be replaced by "element", as that is what the intention was (Randy), and is also in line with how XmlElement is defined at other places in the specification.

There probably are compliance tests (for client, and server) that are based on understanding of "XML fragment" as being a wider concept than "XML element". This issue should be cloned to the Compliance project if this is the case.

Replaced the word “fragment” with the word “element” in 5.3.1.9 in Draft 6.
