I know that the text string between the start and end tags contains no XML,
only text with no markup.
My plan is to put the text string between the open and close title tags as
part of a larger text string that I want to convert to an XML document via
xdmp:unquote .
Sounds like I'll be whipping up my own function based on fn:replace.

Why do you have malformed xml like that?
How do you reliably know what's tags and what's string?
Your plan is to preprocess the text to make it well-formed xml so it can be
unquoted?

Within the larger context, I have a string like this:
<title>A title for <placeholder text> the product</title>
that I'm then converting into an xml document node using xdmp:unquote.
That makes xdmp:unquote barf, but if I do a fn:replace, on the specific
characters it works.
As I said, I can whip something up, but I assumed there was an obvious
function for this.

In normal XQuery you don't need to do this. Are you sure you do?
Maybe you just need:
<foo>{ $value }</foo>
The value will be properly escaped on output.

I could do that, but I just figured there'd be a xquery function do to it
for all three special XML characters. It's easy enough to write one, but I
just assumed that someone else would have needed it.

Steve - Did you try using fn:replace? e.g. fn:replace(fn:replace($title,
"<", "&lt;"), ">", "&gt;")
