Notes on the Saxon implementation
The current-merge-group() function is introduced in Saxon 9.6, reflecting
changes in the XSLT 3.0 specification. It replaces current-group(), which was
overloaded to handle merging in earlier versions. In Saxon 9.6, the implementation did not match
the latest version of the W3C spec for this function. Instead of returning a map, it
returned a sequence containing all the items from the current group, regardless which merge
source they came from. Since Saxon 9.7, the implementation conforms with the final Recommendation.
