    ..but PDP is not intended to be a source (for "adding/enhancing") of
    information, is it?  In most cases, one would expect the same piece of
    code to somehow provide both PDP and PIP services, but for the purpose
    of the standard these are two very distinct activities, I would imagine.
    
    Same reason as for why the bags are not ordered.  Attempt to prescribe
    how it is to be done may be too much for us to tackle, and I am not sure
    that we should try.  XACML is deterministic given that PIP and request
    provides the exact same data, but does not require that, beyond the
    statement that condition functions shall not have side effects and shall
    return the same response for the same arguments every time.
