            Bug ID: 29113
           Summary: [XSLT30] fn:system-property does not a allow an EQName
           Product: XPath / XQuery / XSLT
           Version: Last Call drafts
          Hardware: PC
                OS: Windows NT
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: XSLT 3.0
          Assignee: mike@saxonica.com

  Target Milestone: ---

We currently say about the only argument of fn:system-property (20.3.4
fn:system-property) that:

<quote>
The $property-name argument must evaluate to a lexical QName. 
</quote>

Since every other function we have that used to accept QNames now also accepts
EQNames, I think this was possibly an oversight and should now (also) allow
EQNames as an argument. See also Michael Kay's suggested conversion function
which appears to assume this:
