Till Westmann commented on VXQUERY-184:
---------------------------------------

Not sure, but it seems that there might be an implicit atomization missing. 
According to the specification [1] atomization should be applied to each 
orderspec - which is exactly what you do when applying data(...) on $x/title ...

> Unordered result of order-by

>            Priority: Minor

> I tried to run the following query in VXQUERY:
> for $x in doc("books.xml")/bookstore/book
> order by $x/title
> return $x/title
> The result I got was not ordered. But if I change the second line to this:
> order by data($x/title) the result is correct.
> Why does this happen?
