You can't add custom functions directly to the version of Jaxen bundled 
with XOM. You could do this by using Jaxen directly, though the 
navigator there is a little different and a little buggy.

If you had a good use case, you might convince me to expose more of 
jaxen in XOM or improve the jaxen navigator. However, my general 
assumption is that non-XPathish things can usually be done more easily 
in straight Java than in an extension function.
