Seems like occursStopValueKind="literal"
only applies to representation="text".
With that caveat, I think I agree we
need to be able to say
<element name="x" type="int"
maxOccurs="unbounded" dfdl:occursSeparator="|" dfdl:occursKind="stopValue"
dfdl:stopValue="done" dfdl:occursStopValueKind="literal"
dfdl:representation="text"/>
Then this would be valid 3 occurences
for element x.
2|3|4|done
I think we shoudl rename dfdl:stopValue
to dfdl:occursStopValue for consistency.

Mike - looking at an old level of the spec, we had a occursStopValueKind
property, with enums 'logical', 'literal' and 'missing'. Analogous
to nullvalueKInd property. I'm sure we want to handle 'missing' differently
but the literal v logical distinction is required. How are we proposing
to cover this?

Based on minutes from last week's meeting I've updated to v3 the proposal
for simplifying length/occurs properties.
Changes are marked with comments.
