https://www.w3.org/Bugs/Public/show_bug.cgi?id=19004 --- Comment #20 from Michael Kay <mike@saxonica.com> --- At this stage of the game, clarifying and fixing bugs in the spec is still allowed, but making improvements isn't. I think what you are suggesting falls into the category of suggesting improvements. Some of the details of format-integer() are derived directly from xsl:number, which may explain some of the oddities. Requiring the primary format token to be a single character would disallow "Ww", and also (I believe) some other options that various xsl:number implementations have traditionally provided. The design principle for error handling in functions such as format-integer(), format-date() etc is that if the picture syntax is wrong, it's an error, but if the picture has implementation-defined semantics, then implementations that don't recognize the picture must use a fall-back representation. This is designed to maximize interoperability. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the QA Contact for the bug.
