Thanks for your bug report - this is a personal response.

I agree that it's important to make XQuery and XPath 2.0 operators available as
functions, but I don't think these should necessarily be in the specifications.
Since these functions can easily be defined in XQuery or XSLT 2.0, I think
instead they would be better off defined in a standard EXPath module that can
be imported when needed. It is my intention to design such a module when XQuery
1.1 and XSLT 2.1 become nearer completion, should no one step up to do so
before me.

A few comments on your list:

set-product() - How would you represent the resulting sequence of pairs?
apply() - How would you represent the list of argument values?
filter() - This already exists in F&O 1.1
