It's not exactly clear to me what you're trying to select but the depth
of Y nesting is the maximum of count(.//Y/ancestor::Y) you can find teh
maximum in several ways (see faq) eg a max extension function (exslt)
or just selecting all .//Y sorting on count(.//Y/ancestor::Y)
and taking the last one.
