Note (from the peanut gallery) - the order of evaluation is not defined
in XPath and XSLT - they are not loops but definitions of mappings from
input ot output.
Similarly in XPath 3,
for $i in 1 to 10 return $i * 3
could be evaluated in parallel (although I doubt any implementation
would for something this simple, they actually do for more complex
things).
