Hi Joseph,
Thanks for the thoughts.

I'm quite keen to have (see) this support within XalanJ's XSLT 3.0 and
XPath 3.1 processors (that shall allow us to have 'schema aware' XSLT
and XPath processors within XalanJ, which is nice).
Currently, the XalanJ development we're doing on dev repos branch
xalan-j_xslt3.0, is by design building non 'schema aware' XSLT 3.0 and
XPath 3.1 processors. With non 'schema aware' XSLT and XPath
processors, to get general support of XML Schema data types within
XPath 3.1 expressions (and to lesser extent within XSLT 3.0
stylesheets), we need to mostly do explicit casts within XPath
expressions (for e.g, xs:date(xml_elem) gt current-date(). With
'schema aware' XPath processor, it should be possible to write XPath
expressions like following : xml_elem gt current-date() where an XML
element xml_elem has a run-time type annotation of xs:date by virtue
of an XML element xml_elem been validated by an XML schema).
