Description Ghislain Fourny 2012-01-30 11:17:40 UTC 
The focus must fulfill consistency rules as stated in the description of the dynamic context (2.1.2) and in paragraph C.2. In particular, the context size and the context position must be defined and greater than zero if the context item is defined.

I suspect that section 4.17 (Context Item Declaration) may render the focus inconsistent, by setting the context item without setting the context position and size appropriately.
Comment 1 Michael Kay 2012-02-06 17:06:05 UTC 
XSLT handles this by defining the term "singleton focus". A singleton focus set to N is defined to have context item = N, position = 1, size = 1. Constructs such as the context item declaration are defined to create a singleton focus set to the selected item.
Comment 2 Jonathan Robie 2012-02-14 12:54:27 UTC 
The Working Group agrees to adopt the solution in Comment #1 (with editorial discretion).
