Defined where in the spec?

Would it be reasonable to change it as I described in the final paragraph of

That's obviously an implementation issue.  Possible ways to deal with this:

(a) have multiple linked lists, one for each protection attribute
(b) build the linked list in such a way that the head element will always be
one of the ones of the most public access level that exists among the overloads
