This is the definition of dynamic.clickstream:
<DATA-DEF name="dynamic.clickstream"
structref="#loginfo">
<CATEGORIES><navigation/><computer/></CATEGORIES>
</DATA-DEF>
It inherits the data structure http://www.w3.org/TR/P3P/base#loginfo,
but overrides the category.
As I see, there is only one difference from the vehicle.built.where
definition: It's a <DATA-DEF> instead of a <DATA-STRUCT>.
I suppose, this should not lead to a difference in category-
inheritance-and-overriding-behavior. (?)
So I expect each dynamic.clickstream.ANYTHING to be in the
<navigation/> *and* the <computer/> category.
So it seems to be impossible to differentiate, and have
dynamic.clickstream.clientip.partialhostname
only in the <demographic/> category and
dynamic.clickstream.clientip.fullip
only in the <computer/> category.
Wouldn't you agree?
Best regards,
Nikolaj
