It just means sequence of items without any restrictions.

Easy:
<xf:repeat ref="reverse(items/item)">
"the same node can occur multiple times in the repeat collection"

<xf:repeat ref="foo, bar, foo, baz">
In XPath 1.0, a nodeset couldn't have duplicate nodes. But in XPath 2.0, a
sequence allows duplicate nodes. It's just a list.
