RE: xproc static and dynamic error output as xml

Isn't that already the case?

Look at 4.6.1.2: c:error - http://www.w3.org/XML/XProc/docs/langspec.html#cv.error

I suppose it should be said that implementations MAY output such error documents, as well as ones for static errors, as long as it's outputted in a different, implementation defined way i.e. implementations mustn't output errors as if everything was OK. E.g. a command line XProc processor may return error documents on stderr, but not on stdout.

I think we can all see value in specifying static and dynamic error
output as well formed xml

for example;

<err:result>
    <err:XS0049>It is a static error if the psvi-required attribute is
"true" and the processor does not support passing PSVI annotations
between steps.</err:XS0049>
</err:result>

is this something to leave as an implementation detail or should we
amend 6 Errors section a little bit ?

cheers, Jim Fuller
