Description

For fn:substring-before and fn:substring-after, the spec says: Returns the collation units of one xs:string that precede in that xs:string the collation units of another xs:string. A collation may be specified.

Glossary doesn't include 'collation units' or 'collation'. How does one specify a 'collation' (it's a string as that's the type of the optional 3rd arg)? I think "collation units" means a string, but this is really unclear.

We either need to xref to XPath more explicitly here, or provide more information. If we keep this terminology, it should go into the glossary, unless it is used ONLY here.
