thx Adam for the analysis,

Note that the current xmlcalabash extension is extremely primitive
because I noticed that Norman is refactoring calabash and I didn't
want to enshrine just yet.

I think the answer depends on Dr. Kay's response ... the eXist
community would be grateful if he could indicate if this is a priority
or something that he plans to work on; we did just switch eXist to use
SAXON by default now for XSLT processing perhaps we could announce
this a bit more widely (in the next release no doubt).

from pragmatic viewpoint, I would rather wait for a saxon release and
then code up a proper extension, but that doesn't help Henry ;)
