I think that technically, if you write "/book" then it isn't streamable,
because "book" is a downward selection and in the general case, "/book" isn't.
I think it will work with Saxon, which optimises the "/" away when it knows the
context item is a document node, but I can't see how adding a redundant step to
the path expression improves the example.

Hi all,
The XSLT 3.0 spec section mentioned in subject, has the following example
at the beginning,
<xsl:source-document streamable="yes" href="book.xml">
<xsl:for-each select="book">
<xsl:for-each select="chapter">
<xsl:result-document href="chapter{position()}.xml">
<xsl:copy-of select="."/>
</xsl:result-document>
</xsl:for-each>
</xsl:for-each>
</xsl:source-document>
I think that, it may be better to have above example as follows,
<xsl:source-document streamable="yes" href="book.xml">
<xsl:for-each select="/book">
<xsl:for-each select="chapter">
<xsl:result-document href="chapter{position()}.xml">
<xsl:copy-of select="."/>
</xsl:result-document>
</xsl:for-each>
</xsl:for-each>
</xsl:source-document>
(I guess, the XSLT 4.0 spec intends to say one book with above example)
Thanks for any comments.
