Sorry for that. > If you can hold the data in memory as XPath sequences, > you should be able to retain type information? But it is not always possible to use XPath sequences. In particular with other sequences, as they cannot be embedded. Maybe a system using markers as you showed -- something like (<q/>, 1, 2, <q'/>, 3, <q'/>, 4, <q/>) -- could be usefull in some circumstencies. But this cannot be used by a library as a black-box object passed to the user. Because the user cannot add it to a sequence for example. I think I have an entry on my blog that show a practical example of the non-usability of sequences: http://fgeorges.blogspot.com/2006/08/type-preserving-copy-in-xslt-20.html (see the "Problematic" section).
