In my Balisage-2013 article "Programming in XPath 3.0" [1],  I raised
the need for an XPath "import clause". 

Such a thing would be lovely.

While we're extending XPath, can we have support for named, referenceable
predicate definitions?  Preferably composable ones, so I can combine a
group of named predicates under another name?
