[xsl] Applying lists outside of paragraphs

Hi List,

Thanks in advance for the help. I'd like to blame this one on Monday,
except for the fact that it isn't...

I'm attempting to apply-templates to my paragraph elements and then
apply-templates to my list elements as the list elements are currently
embedded in the paragraph elements.

INPUT

<?xml version="1.0"?>
<para.appl>Blah Blah <term>foo</term> to <term>bar</term> for
        <term>foo</term>, Blah Blah:
        <list.appl>
                <listitem.appl>Bullet 1</listitem.appl>
                <listitem.appl>Bullet 2 <term 
refid="wtr-tm">bar</term></listitem.appl>
        </list.appl>
</para.appl>


XSL

<?xml version='1.0'?>
<xsl:stylesheet version="1.0" xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform";>

<xsl:template match="/">
        <xsl:apply-templates/>
</xsl:template>

<!-- This is the weird Part -->
<xsl:template match="para.appl">
<p><xsl:apply-templates select="*[not(descendant-or-self::list.appl)]"/></p>
<xsl:apply-templates select="list.appl"/>
</xsl:template>

<xsl:template match="list.appl">
<ul>
<xsl:apply-templates/>
</ul>
</xsl:template>

<xsl:template match="listitem.appl">
<li><xsl:apply-templates/></li>
</xsl:template>

<xsl:template match="term">
<em><xsl:apply-templates/></em>
</xsl:template>

</xsl:stylesheet>


OUTPUT

<p><em>foo</em><em>bar</em><em>foo</em></p><ul>
                <li>Bullet 1</li>
                <li>Bullet 2 <em>bar</em></li>
        </ul>


DESIRED OUTPUT

<p>Blah Blah <em>foo</em> to <em>bar</em> for
        <em>foo</em>, Blah Blah:</p>
        <ul>
                <li>Bullet 1</li>
                <li>Bullet 2 <em>bar</em></li>
        </ul>


I can't quite figure out why <xsl:apply-templates
select="*[not(descendant-or-self::list.appl)]"/> does not want to
apply the default text() template. I've also tried no axis, child::,
descendant:: and even self:: but none give the desired output... Any
ideas? I'm using Saxon 8.7.1

Thanks in advance for the help

Spencer
