This is a MUST in our requirements document. We need a proposal for numeric
formatting in XQuery 1.1.

2.3.3 Numeric formatting

    XQuery 1.1 MUST include additional library functions or an equivalent
mechanism to perform formatting of numeric values.

    It SHOULD be similar to the functionality provided in XSLT 2.0, such as by
function format-number().
