Some of the functions, including some specified in the standard, produce fragments. That's why we have the 'IS DOCUMENT' test.

But then you could use xmlfragments as the functions return type, no ?

Does tha standard require that the same field type must store both
documents and fragments ?


Yes, the standard very explicitly provides for one XML type which need not be an XML document. We have no choice about that.
