Description
The s9api methods XdmItem.getStringValue() and XdmItem.getUnicodeStringValue() throw the internal unchecked exception UncheckedXPathException if applied to an item (such as a map) that has no string value. The exception thrown should be a checked exception and should be documented in the Javadoc.
(Hmmm: adding a checked exception to an existing method may mean existing application code no longer compiles. Perhaps we should only do this at a major release?)
