It's important to note that, in our experience and in our design, the

In my experience, that level of indirection is a disaster. It is the single most problematic part of XML as practiced. It destroyed XPointer. It takes what should be a simple, atomic value and makes it context dependent. I'm surprised you want to reinvent that particular mistake.
