For (2), the challenge would be how to process the first [certain
amount] of the document and no more, again without inefficiently
counting nodes.
Do a sibling-recursion identity transform:
<xsl:template match="node()">
<xsl:copy>
<xsl:apply-templates select="@*|node()[1]"/>
</xsl:copy>
<xsl:apply-templates select="following-sibling::node()[1]"/>
</xsl:template>
<xsl:template match="@*">
<xsl:copy/>
</xsl:template>
Just add a parameter which maintains the count...
