Public comment: Do we need the lengthKind 'endOfParent' restriction for local groups? (Steve)
5/11: http://redmine.ogf.org/boards/15/topics/51. Stops such an element being wrapped in a local group. It looks like this was added to make checking easier. Really the restriction is that the element is "last in the box", and could in principle have surrounding intermediate sequences or implicit choices. Need concise language to express this.
12/11: Need language written.
...
26/11: With Steve, no progress.

Attached is an updated version of the description for 'endOfParent', which attempts to make the concept clearer.
