I agree, with one small addition: instinctively I think it's worth documenting
that the sequence *might* be empty--and that's what the original text was
attempting to do. The result will always be a sequence, and it may be an empty
sequence.
So I think the suggested rewording is great, but if we could add the
"potentially empty" to the sentence, that'd be even better:
"The result represents a potentially empty sequence of XML nodes or values."
Just a gut feeling, though...
