Subject: consolidate same nodes into one

Hello,
I want to ask you guys a solution in XSLT about how to consolidate several same XML nodes into one. For instance:

<xsl:template name="details">
<details>
<xsl:for-each select="detail">
<xsl:sort select="A/@app"/>
<xsl:sort select="A/@id"/>
<xsl:sort select="A/@part"/>
<xsl:sort select="A/@factor"/>
<xsl:sort select="A/@inc"/>
<xsl:call-template name = "copydetail"/>
</xsl:for-each>
</details>
</xsl:template>

Instead <xsl:call-template name = "copydetail"/> which copy the current node into the <detail> node I would like to update the same node if already exist in the <detail>. Is it possible?
Unfortunately I can't use the position() function because of the sorting, how can I keep track of the last processed node? I guess my logic will say if processed node = current node then update processed node, otherwise write (output) the processed node because I won't find any more of this nodes in my file (because of the sorting). Using key() instead the sort works too but I have the same problem, how can I group all of the nodes in my key into one single node? Maybe with 2 steps transformation process?
Hope I could explained the problem clear enough.
Thanks.
