Precisely specify normative behaviour of CreateCoordinationContext 
against existing (superior) context


Issue Details:

[This issue stems from Choreology Contribution issue TX-17.]

The initial part of Section 3 (up to and inluding the diagram, Figure 
2., on p. 10) uses an example to convey three things:

    a) the basic interactions of a registering application service and a 
Registration Service, and their
    relationship to Coordinators and Participants
    
    b) the notion of an interposed Coordinator, and
    
    c) some seemingly normative rules relating to how interposed 
coordination works.
 
It should be made clear what is exemplification, and what is normative. 
It is possible that the exposition of
basic (C-P) and interposed (C-P/C-P) behaviours may be easier to grasp 
with two successive and related
examples. These are primarily editorial matters. In the proposed 
resolution I will call this sub-issue a).


Proposed Resolution:

Editorial work required to clarify example, and accompanying figure, and 
to create a section that describes the model and normative operation of 
sub-coordination.
