Below is the minimal case of the error I do not understand:
<xsl:for-each select="$areaNames">
<!-- F [Saxon-PE 9.3.0.5] Leading '/' cannot select the root node of the
tree containing the context item: the context item is an atomic value -->
<xsl:sequence select="key('name2Area',current())"/>
There's an implicit third argument to key(), telling it which document
to search. The default value is effectively "/" - that is, the document
containing the context node. If there isn't a context, node, using "/"
fails.
I must see if I can improve the error message (the problem is that Saxon
expands the call at an early stage to use "/" explicitly, so the error
message reflects the query as Saxon rewrote it, not the original as you
wrote it.)
