[Bug 9957] New: [XSLT 2.0] Incomplete/obsolete proviso about temporary trees

http://www.w3.org/Bugs/Public/show_bug.cgi?id=9957

           Summary: [XSLT 2.0] Incomplete/obsolete proviso about temporary
                    trees
           Product: XPath / XQuery / XSLT
           Version: Recommendation
          Platform: PC
        OS/Version: Windows NT
            Status: NEW
          Severity: minor
          Priority: P2
         Component: XSLT 2.0
        AssignedTo: mike@saxonica.com

Section 9.4 says (trying to be helpful) "Also, the key and id functions can be
used to find nodes within a temporary tree rooted at a document node, provided
that at the time the function is called, the context item is a node within the
temporary tree."

The "provided that" clause is obsolete and unnecessary since the 3rd argument
of key() and the 2nd argument of id() were added to remove this restriction.

I would suggest simply deleting the clause starting "provided that...".
