A non-streamable function fn:input-document() might be a win!

It would have the same effect: code using this function could not be
easily converted to be part of a stylesheet that processes a
collection of documents.
Yeah, i was thinking after i wrote it that it'd need a tricksy
definition to work in that case and still be useful, and i'm not at
all sure it's worth it.
I have occasionally wondered whether the ban on using tunnel
parameters inside a function is perhaps rather paternalistic.
I think so - you can presumably have a template wrapper whose only
purpose is to return a tunel parameter, and call it from within the
function.
