Which is what (IMO) the wg should have done.
Carved it up such that the db/schema crowd got what they wanted,
without polluting xslt+xpath.
I'm sure it could have been carved up better, and the good improvements
left in xslt +xpath 2, with the datatypes and other stuff left out for
xquery to play with
as something built on xpath, not polluting it.
