Read that as "you have no standard way of forcing...".

Recent versions of Saxon have an extension which allows you some control
over whether non-ASCII characters are represented in their native encoding,
as hex or decimal character references, or as HTML entity references. (But
actually, Saxon only knows about the entity references up to 255, so this
example will come out as a numeric reference anyway).
