But why not pass in the node as the parameter rather than the name of
the node, which would make things a lot simper.

That is, rather than

  <xsl:with-param name="node"  select="'desc'"/>
....
  <xsl:value-of select=".//*[local-name()=$node]"/>

do

  <xsl:with-param name="node"  select=".//desc"/>
....
  <xsl:value-of select="$node"/>
