You could replace it with a function, but unfortunately markup gets
flattened early, so the functionness is lost.

Another approach might be to transform what you have (using XSLT) into
an XSLT stylesheet and execute that with fn:transform(). It could be
just a sungle template with your entire result in it.

So, <level depth="$calulated[1]" />

might become in the XSLT you generate, <level depth="{ $calculated[1] }
"/>
and be evaluated.

Yuo can pass a stylesheet node to fn:transform, of course.
