If I interpret the standard correctly -- and in practice the 
implementation haven't agreed on violating it -- it is easily possible 
to decide, which volumes belong to a volume set. Moreover, I believe, 
all volumes belong to a volume set -- individual volumes, that appear 
not to, simply live in a one element volume set then.
