Location sets may be used to define logical groups of locations. Often an action may need to be taken on a whole set of locations (e.g. validation). By creating a LocationSet the action need only be defined once.
Any location may appear in more than one location sets. Internally a location set is simply evaluated as a list of locations.
When available on the file system, the name of the XML file is for example:
LocationSets 1.00 default.xml
LocationSets Fixed file name for the locationSets configuration
1.00 Version number
default Flag to indicate the version is the default configuration (otherwise omitted).
