Move selection logic to caller - that's much more effective. I mean select 
nodes to process by <xsl:apply-templates> and not by <xsl:template> if you 
have such a convolute logic. I mean

<xsl:apply-templates select="z:row[@Type='Matrix']/z:row[@MatrixOpt='1']
 | z:row[@Type='Matrix']/z:row[@MatrixOpt='5']
 | z:row[@Type='Matrix']/z:row[@MatrixOpt='6']"/>

...

<xsl:template match="z:row">
...
</xsl:template>
