FO. Is XSL FO realy XML? Re: attributes ordering

<WD>

5.4 Common Border, Padding, and Background Properties
....

5.4.31 border
5.4.31.1 Allowed Values
<'border-top-width'> || <'border-style'>> || <color> 

5.4.31.2 Description
A shorthand property for setting border the properties of a block-area or inline-area.

The "border" property is a shorthand property for setting the same width, color, 
and style for all four borders, top, bottom, left, and right, of a box. 
Unlike the shorthand "margin" and "padding" properties, the "border" 
property cannot set different values on the four borders. To do so, 
one or more of the other border properties must be used. 
Since, to some extent, the properties have overlapping functionality, 
the order in which the rules are specified is important. 
</WD>

The last line requires processing to rely on the attribute order.
( 'border'  is actualy attribute ).
