I wouldn't wish XQueryX on anyone, but it seemed to be exactly what you were
looking for. I'm now confused about your requirements.

# Almost perfectly, thanks (wish I had thought of that).

# Given that we already run Saxon going the whole nine yards
# might make even more sense. However, I'll note that the
# verbosity of XQueryX makes XSLT look like Perl by way of
# comparison. It strikes me that we could also use XQuery for a
# validation language similar to the way Schematron uses Xpath;
# if a query does not return a result set the statement is not
# regarded as valid? If so, we could write directly in XQuery
# and skip XQueryX?
