Is using a document node constructor (3.7.3.3) the only way to
construct document? Or is it possible to automatically have an
element node convert into a document, or an external entity, if
it is at the top? The later is desirable, and XQuery should
clarify this. Also, why are the rules for XML documents not
enforced? What other purpose than this would a document constructor
have?

Regards,    Martin.
