One question about "Other than the above mentioned newly implemented XPath 3.1 functions, all the functions that are specified for XPath 1.0 are available with Xalanbs XPath 3.1 implementation as well. ":

Is there a dedicated XPath 3.1 evaluation API that allows the user to
pass in anyB  XDM value (e.g. atomic values, sequences, maps, arrays) as
parameters and return any XDM sequence?

I am not sure how the basically XPath 1.0 oriented JAXP XPath API that
allows returning single atomic values or node-sets/node lists would
allow me to use the full power of XPath 3.1 (i.e. returns any sequence
of e.g. atomic values, nodes, maps, arrays).
