Re: [Slightly OT] XSL weirdness

Yeah that killed me too... perhaps it is more correct to say that "." 
is scoped to the XPath statement, while current() is scoped outside the 
XPath statement.

The correct usage is: select="/selections/regions/*[id=current()]"
(The reason being, the 'context' node (".") changes with each "/", 
while XSLT
maintains a separate 'current' node, which only changes on 
apply-templates or
inside for-each. Consequently, the behaviour you observe is correct.)
