http://www.w3.org/Bugs/Public/show_bug.cgi?id=12909

           Summary: Should annotations be also possible for inline
                    functions?
           Product: XPath / XQuery / XSLT

          Platform: PC
        OS/Version: Windows NT
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: XQuery 3.0
        AssignedTo: jonathan.robie@redhat.com

The current XQuery 3.0 working drafts permits annotations on variables and
functions that are defined in the prolog.

Somewhat surprisingly, inline functions currently do not seem to allow
annotations.
Clearly, there is no need for the built-in annotations like %nondeterministic
or %private, but user-defined annotations or later %updating/%sequential have a
clear use case.

Is there any particular reason why annotations on inline functions are
currently not supported, in particular since they had been present in John
Snelson's proposal?
