If you're using Cocoon 2.1, the XPathDirectoryGenerator might be useful.
It lets you extract XPath-specified nodes from every file in a directory.

For example, to generate http://aft.sourceforge.net/examples/index.html
I used:

   <map:match pattern="examples/index.xml">
     <map:generate type="xpathdirectory"
      src="content/xdocs/examples#/project/description/text()"/>
     <map:transform src="resources/stylesheets/antdirectory2document.xsl"/>
     <map:serialize type="xml"/>
   </map:match>
