  The intent of XSLT transformations is not to work with
characters, but with the data model defined in [XDM].  Of
course, there are a lot of functions to operate on strings,
but dealing with the codepoints directly in the stylesheet
is not a frequent thing IMHO.

  The data model and its lexical representation are two
different beasts.
