--> I'll suggest not to specify the collapser as generated content for
the "title" child element, but rather to specify the collapser as
generated content for the "variablelist" element itself:
---
variablelist {
collapsible: yes;
/*not-collapsible-head: 1;*/
collapsed-content: "variablelist";
collapsed: yes;
/*margin-left: 4ex;*/
margin-left: 6ex; /*Larger than original value*/
}
variablelist:before {
display: marker; /*with adaptations, display:block would work too*/
content: collapser();
}
/* Of course, remove the "variablelist > title:before" rule */
---
--> It is also possible to mix both approaches (trickier):
---
variablelist {
collapsible: yes;
/*not-collapsible-head: 1;*/
collapsed-content: "variablelist";
collapsed: yes;
/*margin-left: 4ex;*/
margin-left: 6ex; /*Larger than original value*/
}
variablelist:before {
display: marker;
content: collapser();
}
variablelist > title:before {
content: collapser() " [" label(xpath, "../@xml:id") "] ";
}
variablelist:contains-element(title) {
not-collapsible-head: 1;
collapsed-content: "";
margin-left: 4ex; /*Restore original value*/
}
variablelist:contains-element(title):before {
content: "";
}

PS: I've not tested all this but I'm sure that there is no bug here.
Just the usual pitfall: playing with the computed specificities of the
CSS rules may be tricky
