Re: Designs for XSLT functions (Was: Re: RE: syntax sugar for call-template)

Would it be useful to take Michael Kay's "spec" for
<saxon:function> as a strawman proposal to start with:
http://users.iclway.co.uk/mhkay/saxon/saxon6.2/extensions.html#saxon:function
I think clearly separating the specification of the abilities:
-> to statically define and statically
invoke functions in XSLT, and
-> to dynamically invoke functions
would be useful. Some implementors may be interested in
the former, but not the latter, or vice versa.
