Character maps apply to serializations. What gets stored in the database
isn't serialized: it is a data model instance, that isn't serialized
unless it is (a) rendered as output from a query (b) saved to disk or (c)
explicitly serialized as a string via xdmp:quote.
There is a special pass-through that when a document is returned from XSLT
and returned as a result of the query, the XSLT serialization options will
be applied, but that only works within the context of a single query.
Try this: force a serialization using xdmp:quote and saving the reparse of
that, e.g.
xdmp:document-insert("/my.xml", xdmp:unquote(xdmp:quote($doc)) )
I think that should work. Round-tripping a serialization/parse to/from
disk should also work, e.g.
xdmp:document-insert("/my.xml", xdmp:document-get("/tmp/my.xml",
xdmp:save("/tmp/my.xml",$doc)))
Failing that, you'll need to do a manual sweep-replace yourself so that
the data model instance you save has the characters in it that you want.
