I'm guessing, but I suspect the reason there is no built-in XPath function to retrieve the base URI of a node is that at the time the spec came out, there was still a great deal of debate going on within W3C about the precise definition of base URI within the InfoSet, so the XSLT/XPath authors decided it was best to steer clear of the rocks.
