RE: [xsl] xsl:sort select question

In XSLT 1.0 the xsl:sort attribute 'select' states it's an expression
which includes variable bindings, so I assumed that ;

  <xsl:variable name="title" select="'title'" />
  <xsl:sort select="$title" />

would be equal to ;

  <xsl:sort select="title" />

No, it's equivalent to

<xsl:sort select="'title'"/>

Variables in XSLT contain values, not XPath expressions or parts thereof.
