Since uri-collection() is new to XPath 3.1 and the collection URI query
parameters that OP is using look like Saxon’s, OP is probably using a
recent version of Saxon.
In recent versions of Saxon, a collection URI query parameter named
'match' is supported, see
http://www.saxonica.com/documentation/#!sourcedocs/collections
So you can use this:
uri-collection($srcPath || '?match=.+%5C.(xml%7Cdita)')
In the match regex, since you are using it in a URI, you need to
percent-encode the backslash, '\', and the pipe symbol, '|'.
Saxon’s 'select' query parameter has always supported only glob-like
patterns (that were translated into a matching regex). I don't think you
could ever use a comma-separated list of glob patterns for the 'select'
parameter.

I once upon a time found a documentation with examples on various
way to build collections and for the life of me I cannot find it again.
I have a situation where I have files with a .dita and .xml file
extensions. I thought there was a way to do this in one select
statement but all the ways I can think of do not work. I've tried
separating the extensions with a comma, a space and a colon and none
of them work - no results are returned.
So I have this configuration:
<xsl:variablename="topiccollectionString"
select="/concat/(*$srcPath*,'?select=*.dita;recurse=no')"/>
<xsl:variablename="topicfileSet"select="/uri-collection/(*$topiccollectionString*)"/>
<xsl:variablename="xmltopiccollectionString"
select="/concat/(*$srcPath*,'?select=*.xml;recurse=no')"/>
<xsl:variablename="xmltopicfileSet"select="/uri-collection/(*$xmltopiccollectionString*)"/>
I then have 2 for-each statements to process both lists.
