I agree.

But this is invalid per 19776-1 v3.3; see http://www.web3d.org/documents/specifications/19776-1/V3.3/Part01/EncodingOfFields.html#SFString

There is a specific note which states that an unquoted attribute _value_ (without the quotes which belong to XML) is an invalid MFString. I.e. you may not replace a single-element MFString with an SFString.

I think that shouldn't change in v4.
