  When exporting a stylesheet (either 3.0 or 4.0) for SaxonJS 2.6, using SaxonEE 12.4 running under ` --allowSyntaxExtensions:on`,

  The worst I’ve had was where a bug went away when run under the debugger, due to a bug in the debugger!

  Getting the types for function items can be pretty tricky as the arguments reverse the sense of 'subtype' (It can help to think of two sets of Venn diagrams, one in the range, i.e. function output, and on one in each of the argument doma... Bug #6011: Inline function created using xsl:evaluate

  Same bug as #6003, but on SaxonJS.

  It looks as if, at least in Firefox and Chrome, the implict `sup` styling is being overridden by `saxon-base.css:37`, specifically setting `vertical-align:baseline` rather that `super` and `font:inherit` overriding `font-size:small`. Bug #4585 (In Progress): Documentation: superscript not rendered

  At http://www.saxonica.com/saxon-js/documentation/index.html#!conformance/xslt30, under xsl:number, we see "Saxon-JS loses precision when formatting numbers greater than 253". It presumably should be 2^53.

  You will need a mechanism to supply a function type signature, if only to establish the arity and deeper to declare types of arguments and return. Without the latter, especially for arguments, you could get any form of argument supplied ... Feature #5558: Allow clients of SaxonJS to supply a map of custom XPath functions with arbitrary names

  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 impl...

  Yes - this looks like an oversight - the original 'syntax check' for `xsl:copy-of` incorrectly declared the possibility of a sequence constructor child (as `xsl:copy` of course is permitted, and I assume I copy-and-pasted).
