Definition approved by Senior Editors (April 11, 2008)
In future versions of the schema, this should be dealt with programatically rather than being manually entered by an indexer or editor.
Future revision: Should probably add how to determine what makes a new sequence a new sequence, when to lump and when to split, reference to reprints, etc
