Well I do have a question to that still:

<root>
<text id="color" xml:lang="en">colour</text>
<text id="color" xml:lang="en-us">color</text>
</root>

using //text[@id='color' and (lang('en-us') or lang('en')]/text() will
always return "colour" although I am expecting "color". I know
attributes are not ordered, but can you not have the perfect match be
in the selected result first?

These are filters, not ordered operations.  If you want an ordered
selection, you’ll need to be more explicit; in XSLT 1.0, that means
using multiple variables instead of a single XPath.
