I don't think this is correct:

current-group() like most other aspects of the XSLT dynamic context is
passed through to a named template. I don't think it's good coding style to
do this, but it's permitted.

Thanks Michael, I hoped someone would either correct me or confirm me. I checked the spec, but I found the sentence "While an xsl:for-each-group instruction is being evaluated, the current group will be non-empty. At other times, it will be an empty sequence." not utterly clear.
