I guess we are not talking about the same thing or I am completely
confused (which might well be the case). I am talking about the filter
expression which you pass to get-config() to select what you are
retrieving. Using the Enns draft as a basis for a moment, I am talking
about the config parameter of <get-config> described in section 5.1 on
page 18.
