To put it in a more understandable way, the order of items in the
current-group() is the same as their order in the sequence, specified
in the @select attribute of <xsl:for-each-group>.


Hope that in the next spec they will not use latin words that would
require 5 years medical education to understand.

examined in population order and then, if they belong to a group, added to a
group. So that way the order of items in the population determines the order
of items in a group.
