Summary: XQuery: no attribute-node check in updates
Initial Comment:
MonetDB 0.16.2 (supersourcetarball)
an attribute can be added more than once in a single query (resulting in an
invalid xml document):
xquery>for $i in (1,2)
more>let $d := doc("test.xml")
more>return do insert attribute { "id" } { "10" } into exactly-one($d/*)
more>xquery>
more>doc("test.xml")
more><?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<doc id="10" id="10"><start/>
<greet kind="informal">Hi </greet>
<greet kind="casual">Hello </greet>
<location kind="global">World</location>
<location kind="local">Amsterdam</location>
</doc>
xquery>

This test tests the double insert in a single query. If you were to do
the two inserts in separate queries, we do indeed throw an error, but we do
not when the two inserts are done in a single query.
The error throwing is actually also not entirely correct: if in the same
query the old attribute is deleted or renamed, we should (I assume--I
haven't checked the spec) accept the query since the end result is valid
XML.
The problem is that we should perform all updates and then check whether
the end result is valid. This, I think, is too hard to do (both as far as
implementing it and the resulting speed).

Hi Sjoerd. Is this one still open?
I noticed that in pf_support there is code that checks against this (at
least against the condition that the inserted attribute is there already in
the pre-state), as tested here.
That still indeed leaves the possibility open of inserting twice the same
attribute in the same update.

There is a lot more that needs to be tested at the end of an update. One
of the problems is, you can't test while doing the update, since a
subsequent update in the same query may well change something that fixes
the problem.
