The expression in the return clause of a for expression is evaluated with the focus being the same as the focus at the start of the for expression. In particular this means that . (and relative path expressions) work in a rather unexpected way. given an expression such as for $i in widget return exp then 99 times out of 100, this will be a user-error and what was intended was for $i in widget return $i/exp with exp being evaluated relative to the innermost bound variable from the for expression. Is there a technical issue preventing for changing the context in which the return expression is evaluated? This would make the behaviour of for more like that of / and xsl's for-each.
