xslt/xpath does use "tree" informally to include document
fragments that do
not start with /
No, this is not an "informal" usage, it's the correct usage. XPath Data
Model section 2.1
http://www.w3.org/TR/xpath-datamodel/
Every node belongs to exactly one tree, and every tree has exactly one root
node.
[Definition: A tree whose root node is a Document Node is referred to as a
document.]
