Hi guys,

First, to help clarify, let's look at what the spec says today. It says, 
if you DO NOT understand the extension then replace with/treat as <empty/>.


So, make that more specific and say

If a processor does NOT understand the extension, then the extension 
activity is treated as an <empty> activity and all the standard elements 
and standard attributes of the immediate child of the 
<extensionActivity> are placed on this <empty/> activity. Notice that 
any additional child elements or constructs of the extensionActivity are 
dropped in this replacement:

<extensionActivity>
   <foo:myWierdness standard-attributes>
      standard-elements
   </foo:myWierdness>
</extensionActivity>

=>

<empty standard-attributes>
     standard-elements
</empty>

THEN, the resolution of this isssue would be to add the above 
clarification and then to only adding this sentence:

If a link crosses the boundary of an <extensionActivity>, then the 
element contained within the <extensionActivity> MUST be subject to 
mustUnderstand="yes".
