xpath nested predicate

you can use current() to refer to the current node at the start of the
expression but you can't, in general, access the nodes current at
intermediate steps in an XPath.

This looks to be a grouping problem, grouping on product/@id and
selecting the first 3 elements in each group, in which case the grouping
techniques in the faq or jeni's site may help...
