This CR proposes to define string-equal as "xf:compare(arg1,arg2) == 0", with a default collation (Unicode collation algorithm) of "comparison on each character of the string using integer-equal". I would like to suggest that we not support any other "collation algorithms" for string-equal, and not even reference xf:compare in the definition for string-equal. Define string-equal as 'the two arguments, when compared byte-by-byte using "integer-equal", exactly match'. Anne -- Anne H.
