The attached patch allows to pass additional parameters from the sitemap to a
Javascript function indirectly invoked via the xmlForm function. This might be
useful when you want to show a form for editing some entity whose identifier is
specified in the URI: http://localhost/edit-entity?id=XYZ.

Here is a sitemap snippet:
        
<map:match pattern="edit-entity">
 <map:call function="xmlForm">
  <map:parameter name="xml-form-function" value="editEntity"/>
  <map:parameter name="xml-form-id" value="entity-form"/>
  <map:parameter name="xml-form-validator-schema-ns"   
    value="http://www.ascc.net/xml/schematron"/>
  <map:parameter name="xml-form-validator-schema"       
    value="schematron/entity-schema.xml"/>
  <map:parameter name="id" value="{request-param:id}"/>
 </map:call>
</map:match>

The editEntity function should be declared as follows:

function editEntity(xform, id) { ... }
