Christian, Ah, I missed this syntax, thanks! It's exactly what I need.
Another problem down. If I might suggest -- for us XSLT folks it would be a huge favor to offer this hint at http://docs.basex.org/wiki/XSLT. As I keep stressing, we document folks are constantly having to fuss with whitespace and this is an important detail when using XSLT. (Which, I'm finding, is a huge power feature on top of XQuery.)
