fn:collection and subdirectories

Currently fn:collection reads a single directory to find all dot xml files.
These files will be returned in a sequence of document nodes. Should the
function also look into subdirectories to find dot xml files?
Subdirectories would allow better organization of data while only updating
fn:collection to drill down into known directories.

The benchmark could have millions of files and that may be a little extreme
for a single directory.

What do you think?
