Yes, this is exactly the issue that we are discussing within the XML Query 
WG right now.

> Should the XQuery test suite pass the static typing rules


http://www.w3.org/XML/Query/test-suite/Guidelines%20for%20Test%20Submission.html



says:

  Submitted tests should obey the Static Typing rules, except for tests
  intended to evaluate violations of the Static Typing rules. 

So that would imply the answer to the question as written is "yes"
(unless WG supplied tests are not "submitted" in this sense)

I think many of the existing tests don't follow that guideline though,
I'm not sure if that implies that the test or the guideline should be
changed.
