Eat sandwiches at your desk??  Why do you call these "bread crumbs"?

If you mean can you get at the name of the input XML file, then the
answer is no, apart from extension functions such as saxon:SystemId()
which you seem to have found already.
The other approach is to pass the filename as a parameter to the
transformation.  How you do this depends on the processor and whether
its being called from a command line.  Inside the style sheet you just
need a top level xsl:param element.
