As in taking the head or tail of text files? Could you use some XPath like substring() or tokenize() on a p:data to split up a file that way?

not directly on p:data (as its not xml of course) ... I would like to return xml result

<file:head start='0' end='100'> <file:line></file:line> .... 100 lines ... </file:head>

also I have no problem with standardizing extensions which themselves can be implemented using an xproc pipeline ... the key thing is to get the interface right so we don't have something different everywhere.
