ah yes, in other words, what you said was right, and what I said was
wrong:-)

It conforms to _XSLT/XPath_ which says nothing about how the properties
of the input trees are determined. Whether the DOM spec (or javascript
spec or in similar server-side scenarios jaxp spec etc, specify what the
base URI of the in-memory object is would have to be answered by someone
who's read those specs more carefully than I have. (In some of the cases
listed above I haven't looked at all...)
