RE: Implementing " and ' in literals
You're saying that a construct like "@comment()" is "total nonsense". I
don't think it's any more "total nonsense" than (say) "number('London')" or
"/.." is. It's well-defined: it means "find all comment nodes on the
attribute axis", and the result is always an empty node-set. And Saxon, at
least, implements it correctly and conformantly.
