It's rather regrettable that
(a) XQuery 1.0 provides no grouping capability
(b) The above syntax does not match the "group by" clause specified in
any XQuery 3.0 working draft
(c) The XQuery spec is very tolerant of processors providing their own
extensions to the syntax in the W3C recommendation
(d) Many processors have taken advantage of this tolerance, and have
implemented syntactic extensions which will turn out to be incompatible
with future versions of the standard.
