--- Comment #3 from Josh Spiegel <josh.spiegel@oracle.com> ---
The point of the truncation logic is to get the year to fit within the maximum
width.
format-date(xs:date("1998-01-01"), "[Y,2-2]") => 98
format-date(xs:date("1999-01-01"), "[Y,2-2]") => 99
If we applied this logic in the case of roman numerals, it would fail to print
a value within the maximum width in many cases.
format-date(xs:date("1998-01-01"), "[Yi,2-2]") => xcviii (instead of mcmxcviii)
format-date(xs:date("1999-01-01"), "[Yi,2-2]") => xcix (instead of mcmxcix)
And in some cases it will unnecessarily truncate the value.
format-date(xs:date("0101-01-01"), "[Yi,2-2]") => i (instead of ci)
