But we've changed the assumptions. At the meeting, the firm assumption was
that results would be static in the case where a result set name is
supplied.
....
And another important assumption is (was) that the result set corresponds to
the original query string....

What's the mechanism you envision to add a record? It doesn't fit the model
as we've discussed so far. Would you only be able to add a record that
conforms to the original query? Or could someone "qualify" the result set
(e.g. A OR b), in which case the result set no longer corresponds to the
original query string.
Let me ask, and please everyone think about this, is anyone planning to
*use* the result set name feature in the initial testbed, and if not, would
it be reasonable to mention it in the initial report as something we will
study in detail and may (/probably-will) add in the next release, but leave
it out as an actual parameter for now?
