I think people are looking for the exact wording in R5RS
that describes this:
The escape procedure accepts the same number of arguments as the
continuation to the original call to
call-with-current-continuation. Except for continuations created
by the `call-with-values' procedure, all continuations take
exactly one value. The effect of passing no value or more than
one value to continuations that were not created by
call-with-values is unspecified.
That seems unambiguous enough to me.
I don't see why a formal WG1 interpretation of this
is needed, unless someone is proposing that we
change the wording.
Regardless, this is a very far removed tangent from
the original point, whatever that may have been.
