Hi all,

Although this is not general to all SA processors, I just found out that
the Saxon-SA
schema aware processor has the following feature :-

"Saxon-SA includes support for higher-order functions.
See the description of saxon:function for details.
Higher-order functions enable full functional programming capability in
XSLT and XQuery, allowing complex algorithms to be expressed concisely."

So this may be compelling enough to use Saxon-SA and get the schema
awareness advantages as well.

Cheers
