Is there any way to select or process the siblings in
between one top-level <div*> and the next, especially
with something that only uses XPath 1.0?


Yes this is a grouping problem, see the usual places like Jeni's site.
one way:
<xsl:key name="x"  match="node()" use="generate-id((..|preceding-sibling::div1|
preceding-sibling::div2|preceding-sibling::div3)[last()])"/>

Then
sitting on the parent


for-each select=".|div1|div2|div3"

the requested set of nodes is
  key('x',generate-id(.))

This is xpath1 as extended by xslt, if you want pure xpath1 eg for dom
access outside xslt just do it the old way
