Thanks.

The length and complexity of that XPath reinforces my request for some 
verx simple syntax/function, so that the length and the level of 
simplicity of the content model is matched by the matching pattern:

eg
variablelist[content-model(../, 'title?,varlistentry+')]

In other words:
(title?,varlistentry+) is so *very* simple, that I think there should be 
way to write it in a very simple way.
