[Bug 13935] xsd 1.1 assertions testing comment nodes

http://www.w3.org/Bugs/Public/show_bug.cgi?id=13935

--- Comment #11 from Michael Kay <mike@saxonica.com> 2011-11-01 08:35:18 UTC ---
Perhaps an acceptable way forward would be:

By default, comments and processing instructions are excluded from the XDM
instance presented to the XPath assertion (and text nodes that thereby become
adjacent are merged). Processors MAY provide a user option to retain comments
and processing instruction so that assertions can examine their contents or
test for their presence or absence.

Note: I'm not swayed by arguments that different implementors have interpreted
the draft spec differently. We need to do what is right for users.
