SECTION 2.6.6.1: XQuery flagger

To assist the programmer developing a portable application,
the flagger should provide a warning of all dependencies on objects that are not fully specified by W3C specifications.  
Examples of such dependencies are:
- invocation of functions not defined in the fn: namespace
- invocation of functions defined in the fn: namespace that
  have implementation-defined properties (for example,
  fn:collection and fn:doc)
- reference to anything added to the static context as an 
  implementation-defined option.  See the table in appendix 
  C.1  that documents implementation-defined extensions to 
  the static context.  

- Steve B.
