Schematron, XSL match patterns (ie. subset XSL such that templates 
become just another function), CSS selectors, or <whatever>.

In DynaText/DynaWeb the sylesheets also controlled hyperlinking and 
other such things. They used very simple patterns (ancestry and 
attributes), and then allowed arbitrary code to be executed in the 
context of the match.

Personally, I'd be tempted to start with (a subset) of XPath, and a 
simple syntax...
