Thanks for your note. I meant that the generate-id( ) function is
"physically placed" within the lateral fo element, but obviously (now) this
is irrelevant to how it acts to the current source node.

|The state of the result tree is irrelevant, generate-id() 
|depends on the current node, in exactly the same way as . does 
|(or any relative XPath) In XSLT1 there is always a current 
|node that affects XPath processing. (In some contexts in XSLT2 
|the current node is undefined, and XPath expressiosn relying 
|on it raise an error)
