I for one think these two functions don't belong in XPath. This is only a
draft...

I think it would be much more useful if you made points like this in formal
comments sent to the working group via the feedback mechanism identified in
the document. There's otherwise a danger that people assume (a) that points
made on this list will be considered by the working group, and (b) that
responses made on this list by WG members represent a considered WG opinion.
