As luck would have it, I think I may need the count attribute, then, 
because my next step after fixing these little bugs is to go back and 
reimplement the footnote-based citation style, which I'm thinking is 
going to mean I'll need to do something like 
count="db:footnote|db:citation[not(../db:footnote/db:para)]".

The xpath expression is probably wrong, and I still haven't figured out 
how to this with this new code architecture, but the idea is I need to 
basically convert db:citation elements (that aren't already in 
footnotes) to "footnotes" on output, which includes numbering them as 
footnotes.

So then does that mean if the function gets called from two different 
templates -- db:citation and db:footnote in this case -- the missing 
count attribute would know to count either?
