But that was to Tom proposal, which is completely different (yes -- one
word can change the meaning of a sentence).

I agree the paragraph (even with Tom's rework) is a bit confusing to the
uninitiated.  Maybe the subsection could be reflowed so that each
function is described along the corresponding XML Schema function (to
table_to_xml and table_to_xmlschema, later query_to_xml and
query_to_xmlschema and so on).
