[Bug 27015] [xslt 3.0] xsl:context-item/@use = "prohibited": detailed wording

https://www.w3.org/Bugs/Public/show_bug.cgi?id=27015

--- Comment #1 from Michael Kay <mike@saxonica.com> ---
There's a similar problem for xsl:global-context-item. It says "If the value
prohibited is specified, then the global context item must be absent." This
doesn't really indicate if we expect a dynamic error in this case (and what
error?), or if we expect the supplied global context item to be ignored. One
could say that the decision between the two is a matter of API design and
therefore out of scope. The analogy with xsl:context-item would suggest
ignoring the supplied context item rather than throwing an error. This also
might be appropriate given the existence of legacy APIs that supply a context
item and an initial match selection in the same breath.
