HE will never know the type is a sequence type, and EE always will.

I'd go with two templates and the use-when attribute with a value of
something like 

contains(system-property('xsl:product-version'),'EE')

(with 'HE' for the HE one) though I'd want to check what the actual
returned values are.

The HE template uses tokenize() and the EE one doesn't, since it's
already going to have a sequence of strings.

Making this work with Schematron probably requires using a variable and
setting the variable value based on an if statement that checks
system-property().
