Can you share a (short!) example of what you're trying to transform?

This could be an opportunity to use grouping, but it's hard to be sure.

As a sort of general principle, any time you find yourself writing XSLT
that's getting more and more complicated, it's time to stop and think
about the problem some more.  There is nigh-always a conceptually
simpler way to do it.  (Obvious, perhaps not, but cleaner when you get
there.)
