[Bug 9139] [XPath 2.1] Dynamic function calls and context

http://www.w3.org/Bugs/Public/show_bug.cgi?id=9139

This was resolved during the joint meeting this week in Oxford. We agreed some
categories to which functions could be assigned, including the category of
being "focus-dependent", and having defined such a category, we decided that
the functions listed in this bug entry, as well as the similar XSLT functions
such as regex-group() can be allocated to this category, which will ensure that
they cannot be bound to function items. This will entail an expansion of the
concept of the "focus" to embrace all parts of the dynamic context that are not
stable for the duration of an execution scope.

See also bug #8221, under which the discussion occurred.

Leaving the bug open because there is still a need to draft detailed text to
implement this approach.
