Description zhen hua liu 2011-02-24 00:45:17 UTC 
xquery update facility shall allow extension expression to be composable with updating expression.
That is, the following expression shall be allowed:
(# ext:use_idx #){delete $doc/a/b[c=e]}

Currently extension expression is not composable with updating expression
while it is composable with non-updating expression. Since extension expression
is like pragmma which can be used to provide implementation specific hints,
it shall be allowed to be composed on updating expression.
Comment 1 Jim Melton 2011-05-24 16:54:21 UTC 
In its meeting of 2011-05-24, the XML Query WG agreed that this identifies an accidental omission in XQuery Update Facility 1.0 and will correct it via an erratum.  It will also be fixed in XQuery Update Facility 3.0.  I've marked the bug RESOLVED/FIXED.  If this is satisfactory, please mark the bug CLOSED.
