RE: Better include them in the XSLT 2.0 spec (Was: Re: [xsl] Time for an exslt for 2.0?)

Or be prepared for all kinds of a nasty surprise following the fact
that the value of
   
       my:f($x) is my:f($x)

is generally not guaranteed to be true()

Yes indeed. The folks writing the formal semantics have been having fun with
this - as have the folks writing optimizers, and those writing test suites
;-)

It's not really any worse than the fact that (in XQuery notation) (<a/> is
<a/>) return false. In fact, the problem is even there in XSLT 1.0.
