In my simplified example, I have self closing 'e' elements that have a
tag attribute that denotes the start and end points of where style (in
this case bold and italic) should be applied.
I want to group the content within the start and end markers, and create
a wrapper element based on the tag attribute.
That sounds like a grouping task for a nested
for-each-group group-starting-with="e"
for-each-group group-ending-with="e"
with some more precise conditions.
Or in XSLT 3 you could think of xsl:iterate or fold-left.
Looking at it closer it seems you could use the for-each-group within an
iterate, to handle the nesting of e.g. <e tag="b">...<e tag="i">...<e
tag="/i">...<e tag="/i>".

That's XSLT 3 obviously, so I am not sure whether it helps as your
original question only mentioned XSLT 2. However, since 2017, we have
XSLT 3 and Saxon 9.8 and later or Altova XML 2017 R3 and later should
support XSLT 3.
