Subject: designing a xsl:uniq function

Hello,

I recently went through some code I wrote for a 3 levels index, and I was very unproud of the result. My main problem is that I need to have a uniq value for my elements. Is there a way to cleanly design a template that would isolate an element, just like the xsl:sort works (a XSL equivalent to the UNIX uniq utility) ?

Perhaps a new command for XSLT 2.0 ? It would look like :

<xsl:for-each select="//indexentry[@level1=$my_first_level and @level2]">
        <xsl:sort select="@level2"/>
        <xsl:uniq select="@level2"/>
[...]
</xsl:for-each>

What do you think of it ?
