this is not unreasonable

not at all, just to round the thread off for the sake of the archives,
here's the original key method, tested a bit:

nadia.xml


<section>
      <heading>Head</heading>
      <para>Some Text</para>
      <?xm-insertion_mark_start author="N. Swaby"
time="20041103T124303-0500"?>
      <list>
            <list.item>
                  <para>More Test</para>
            </list.item>
      </list>
      <?xm-insertion_mark_end ?>
      <figure>
            <graphic file="drm044-f2.jpg" width="606" height="276"/>
            <figtitle>Fig</figtitle>
      </figure>
      <table><!-- table stuff--></table>
      <table><!-- table stuff--></table>
      <table><!-- table stuff--></table>
</section>



nadia.xsl

<xsl:stylesheet xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform";
                version="1.0">




<xsl:key
   name="pi"
   match="node()"
   use="generate-id(preceding-sibling::processing-instruction()[starts-with(name(),'xm-insertion_mark_')][1])"/>

<xsl:template match="section">
<div>
<xsl:apply-templates/>
</div>
</xsl:template>

<xsl:template match="section[processing-instruction('xm-insertion_mark_start')]">
<div>
<xsl:apply-templates select="processing-instruction('xm-insertion_mark_start')[1]/preceding-sibling::node()"/>
<xsl:for-each select="processing-instruction('xm-insertion_mark_start')">
<div class="revcontrol">
<xsl:apply-templates select="key('pi',generate-id())"/>
</div>
</xsl:for-each>
<xsl:apply-templates select="processing-instruction('xm-insertion_mark_end')[last()]/following-sibling::node()"/>
</div>
</xsl:template>

<xsl:template match="section/heading">
<h2>
<xsl:apply-templates/>
</h2>
</xsl:template>

<xsl:template match="list">
<ol>
<xsl:apply-templates/>
</ol>
</xsl:template>
<xsl:template match="list.item">
<li>
<xsl:apply-templates/>
</li>
</xsl:template>

<xsl:template match="para">
<p>
<xsl:apply-templates/>
</p>
</xsl:template>

<xsl:template match="figure|table">
<p> a converted <xsl:value-of select="name()"/>.</p>
</xsl:template>



</xsl:stylesheet>


$ saxon nadia.xml nadia.xsl
