XPointer can return sets of nodes, parts of nodes and a span of nodes. Whether they can operate on a set of nodes is not stated in the current WD (it's on the list of things to be clarified), but I would assume not. But it's still useful to compare XPointer. The CSS2 selectors are also a sort of query language, and seem rather similar to XSL patterns. (I have just briefly skimmed the XSL WD so far.) In fact I think it would make very good sense for XSL patterns to extend the CSS2 selectors instead of starting again from scratch with XML query language number 3. -- "These are, as I began, cumbersome ways / to kill a man.
