That's not a work-around, that's just the way to
do it using the "pull" approach.

Nope ... <xsl:for-each> is what you would use to
change context.  There shouldn't be multiple ways
of doing the same thing (though I agree it is
sometimes inevitable, but just because a word
doesn't sound right shouldn't warrant the duplication).

I hope this helps.
