Well, it's kinda serious if you've been using the ability to write collation sequences in Saxon -- stylesheets that use them would be invalid under XSLT 2.0, as far as I can tell, unless they were used with a prefix associated with the namespace http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema and a name corresponding to one of the XML Schema primitive data types.
