Sorry, but I'm not sure what this means. Assume the following:
<feed>
<head>
<el1>foo</el1>
</head>
<entry id="entry1">
<entry/>
<entry id="entry2">
<head>
<el2>bar</el2>
</head>
<entry/>
</feed>It is clear that <el1>foo</el1> applies to entry1. It is clear that <el2>bar</el2> applies to entry2. But does <el1>foo</el1> apply to entry2? It looks like it does, because there is no <el1> in entry2's head, and it looks like it doesn't, because there is a <head> in entry2, so you can forget about anything in the feed <head>.
Which one is it? I'd prefer that <el1>foo</el1> applies to entry2, but apart from that, either way, the text isn't clear enough.
