[MarkLogic Dev General] simple cts:search question

[Mike Sokolov]

There might be something about the scope of the query (first arg to 
cts:search), but in my experience cts:element-query doesn't include 
itself in its scope, only its descendants, so I don't think the change 
you are suggesting will solve his problem?  I put in a change request to 
correct that: it seems like the behavior everyone expects.
