Hi Andy, Has this situation changed with newer BaseX and Saxon releases? >
No; I’m sorry. Maybe the Saxon API has stabilized in the meanwhile, so that we can avoid rewriting the corresponding code again and again; would be worth a try (PRs are welcome ;·). That’s also one of the reasons why we haven’t implemented fn:transform so far: Chances are high that we would need to give a lot of support for changes that we are not directly responsible for.
