Funnily enough, an hour ago I was trying to come up with a use case for
using position() on the RHS of "/" and failed to come up with anything very
plausible.
There are things like $seq/position() as an alternative for (1 to
count($seq)), but I'm not sure I would ever write that in real life.

Perhaps something like this, for getting the depth as a list of figures? I found it somewhere where chapter levels needed to be printed:

<xsl:value-of select="ancestor-or-self::node()/position()" seperator="->" />

or wasn't that what you meant by 'use case' for "/" plus fn:position()?
