The spec does not say, nor should it do so. Queries are always in Unicode, but it is up to the implementation what encodings are allowed. In X-Hive, we have a Java API that takes the query as a Java String, so it is always in UTF-16. About the grammar, I submitted this public comment: > - The Char production should not specify [#x0020-#xFFFD], but > [#x0020-#xD7FF] | [#xE000-#xFFFD] | [#x10000-#x10FFFF] as in XML. and received a positive reply, so I presume it will be changed.
