Hi Mike

One extra thought post-call, caused by thinking about the FinalUnused part of a sequence. Some fixed length choices have a rule that each branch of the choice must be of equal length. This results in unused bytes for branches shorter than the maximum. In a bitstream instance, a user will see these bytes. Perhaps the grammar should acknowledge their existence, even if there are no DFDL properties to express the bytes (like FinalUnused)?

Subject	[DFDL-WG] Grammar as adapted to infoset

I took a crack at this. I ripped it out of the main document for faster review/turnaround.

I think this matches the latest infoset email diagram.
