I think that using xsl:for-each is the natural way to do this.
Interestingly I just had a Prof of CS call me for help (he's learning
XSLT) and he thought it was completely unnatural -- semantically --
to use for-each just to switch contexts for a single node; that it
should be kept for iteration over 1+ nodes.
I toyed at one time with adding a construct such as
<xsl:with select="....">
that changes the context node without any iteration semantics, but it's
functionality that for-each already provides so it just seemed like
unnecessary baggage.
