Description

There's an existing mechanism whereby JavaScript functions which are in the global Window scope are automatically made available as XPath functions in a "js:" namespace, but this excludes use cases where it's desirable to add custom implementation functions in some standard namespace, e.g. the EXPath function libraries, XProc's XPath extension functions, etc.

I'd like to see this appear in the API in the same way that params member of the options object appears in the evaluate function; i.e. as an additional functions member of options, whose value is a JavaScript object mapping QNames to JavaScript functions.
