This is an unused feature of OVAL that is just adds time and money to any OVAL interpreter supporting the spec. We have removed this feature from any of the OVAL test content for SCAP 1.4 self-verification and propose officially depreciating it from the spec.
To my knowledge it has never been used in any production content, we have only seen it in educational test content designed to test every feature of OVAL.
