Does this mean that theoretically one can create a "generator",
function returning different values per each call?
No, two calls with the same node are guaranteed to return the same

That's true but what Vladimir meant was this:
<xsl:stylesheet version="2.0"

</xsl:template>
<xsl:function name="f:fun" as="xs:string">

</xsl:function>
</xsl:stylesheet>
