Alex,
 
Your proposal reads as follows:
 
The filename can be enclosed in either quotes or angle brackets, which
affects how a tool searches for the file. 

- When the filename is enclosed in double quotes ("filename"), for
relative a path the compiler's current working directory, and optionally
an implementation-dependent search-path specified by the user is
searched.

- When the filename is enclosed in angle brackets (<filename>), then
only an implementation-dependent location is searched.   Relative path
names given inside the angle brackets are interpreted relative to the
implementation-dependent location in all cases.

1. Regarding "vendor-defined" vs. "implementation-dependent", although
"vendor-defined" may not appear elsewhere, "vendor" does and in various
combinations, such as "vendor-supplied". I'm not sure it matters.
 
2. There is a grammar error, "for relative a path". Did you mean, "for a
relative path"?
 
3. For the double-quote form, I don't think "implementation-dependent"
and "specified by the user" go together.
 
4. "search path" + "is searched" = redundancy.
 
5. For the double-quote form, it omits the case where the filename is
just a name and not a path.
 
6. This omits the information that the "files defined by the language
standard" are to be in the implementation-dependent location.
 
7. The last sentence could be simplified to "Relative path names are
interpreted relative to that location."
 
8. The LRM should clarify explicitly whether the
implementation-dependent location is searched for the double-quote form.
The LRM implies it is not, but it should be explicit.
 
Regards,
Shalom
