I'd like to know whether someone has any experience with XQuery as it is supported in the free version of Saxon. Can it generally be presumed to be complete and usable?

Yes, I have found the free version to be fast and stable.

The XQuery Test Suite has thousands of conformance tests. You can see how Saxon performs here: http://dev.w3.org/2006/xquery-test-suite/PublicPagesStagingArea/XQTSReportSimple.html

If you are looking to use the complete set of XQuery specification (update, scripting, and full-text), you may be interested by Zorba open-source XQuery processor: http://www.zorba-xquery.com.
