This would be very helpful, and ideally should be the default, because this may be the most efficient way to maintain a certain normalization. The same applies to string-join and potentially other operations. 3212 2 mike 2005-05-18 20:42:21 +0000 You can do normalize-unicode(concat($a, $b)) If vendors think this is an important use case then they can easily detect this pattern and optimize it.

This would resolve the commment (in my view).
