[xquery-talk] Dynamic context default values

It is possible to create collections in Sedna too. And we successfully pass
tests like

     count(fn:collection('collection1'))

but I can't understand fn:collection() call (with zero arguments exactly)
which should return default collection value from dynamic context. 


For example, consider we have one or few collections loaded in database. Is
it possible in this situation to raise FODC0002 on

     count(fn:collection())

query?
