I think that technically, if you write "/book" then it isn't streamable,
because "book" is a downward selection and in the general case, "/book"
isn't. I think it will work with Saxon, which optimises the "/" away when
it knows the context item is a document node, but I can't see how adding a
redundant step to the path expression improves the example.


Thanks, for the clarification.
