ERROR in twain specs

[PandeleFlorin]

I have downloaded the latest twain specs and it has an misleading error in it,in page 3-62:

---

TWAIN 1.9 Sources must support all TWAIN 1.8 required features and the following:
Operations
DG_CONTROL / DAT_USERINTERFACE / MSG_ENABLEDSUIONLY – this operation is
only required for mid- and high-volume scanners. It is strongly recommended for other
devices since it allows a way for an application to create predefined session setups for devices
that also include settings for custom features. Note that applications that support this
operation must also support DAT_CUSTOMDSDATA.

DG_CONTROL / DAT_CAPABILITY / MSG_QUERYSUPPORTED

---

in page 5-124 one can read:

---

Requirements to be a TWAIN-Compliant Source
Requirements
TWAIN-compliant Sources must support the following:
Operations
DG_CONTROL / DAT_CAPABILITY / MSG_GET
<...many operations listed>

---

Many operations are listed there except
DG_CONTROL / DAT_CAPABILITY / MSG_QUERYSUPPORTED
In other words, an app developer can count on MSG_QUERYSUPPORTED
but an driver (source) developer is not required to implement it…
😥
