HI. This is interesting and something I'm going to play around with.
However, the issue is probably a somewhat logical explanation when you consider that there is no guaranteed order of execution in a FLWOR statement - I believe. - in the extract-metadata solution, the data you want exists before you start to iterate over the results. - in the FLWOR expression, there is much more involved in the possible order of the results based on what you are doing in the expression - unless you also explicitly add an order by statement. The crazy complexity of this can be previewed here: http://www.w3.org/TR/xquery/#id-orderby-return - So, once you start doing things in the FLWOR expression such as variable assignment and function calls and do not specifically include an order-by statement, then all bets are off as to the final order.
