Notes on the Saxon implementation
Implemented since Saxon 9.7.
An earlier draft of the XSLT 3.0 specification defined attributes
streamable and use-accumulators (to define which
accumulators are available with the document containing the global context item)
for xsl:global-context-item. These were briefly implemented in Saxon
but have now been dropped.
