Re: [dita] Resolution on unresolvable key maps

[Eliot Kimber <ekimber@contrext.com>]

I agree with this. 

I would adjust the last sentence to "This is true even if the peer map
would have a higher key definition precedence."

If the referenced peer map already has a lower precedence then there's no
issue, I think it's clearer to highlight the specific case in question.

Cheers,

E.
