Hi, I like the update proposal, but I have one major concern. My current observation is that proposal allows the removal of document nodes from an XDM instance via the "delete" operation. Assuming that my XDM instance represents an XML database I can remove a document (node) from my database via the "delete" operation. On the other hand the constraints defined for the "insert" operation seem to forbid the insertion of document nodes into an XDM instance. I have a problem with that, because from my point of view this makes it impossible to insert new document nodes into a database via XQuery update.
