Chris, As you will see in my response to Sandro, my real concern is illustrated by "values" such as "hello"^^xs:integer. If both the is-string and is-literal-not-string functions either return false or report a parse/syntax/something error, then I'm satisfied. I don't recall right offhand what your isLiteral() function returns in cases such as "hello"^^xs:integer", so I can't quickly answer "great" or "doesn't help".
