Yes, we also use this pattern in stylesheets that are parameterized using
separate XML files. From the XML e.g. a sequence of names is collected in
variables and matches are similar to

match="*[local-name() = $blockLevelElementNames]"
match="*[local-name() = $inlineLevelElementNames]"
match="@*[local-name() = $commonAttributeNames]"

or sometimes refactored in a function

match="*[ns:SatisfiesCondition(.)]"

Any optimization will be very welcome!

Thanks,

- Michael
