Is it really so restrictive in practise?
Given that E1 must be a node sequence, then even if the restriction
were not there, you would still only be gaining functions of type
[a] -> [a|b]
where a is node() and b is atomic().
Colin,
by "unreasonably restrictive" I mean that the reason for its being
restrictive is not known.
Cheers,
Dimitre.
Is that so useful?
