     In addition to notes, other parts of the LRM which are not official
     parts of the standard are examples (including comments in the examples),
     notes to tables and figures, and footnotes, including figure footnotes.
     
     However, table footnotes can be normative.
     
     The LRM does include code comments in examples which are intended to be
     normative. These should enter the main text.
