You could compare <xsl:key name="whatever" match="b" use="c"/>
To

whatever.xsl:
<xsl:stylesheet ...>
 <xsl:template match="b[c]">
  Result of key usage :)
 </xsl:template>
</xsl:stylesheet>

Since keys can't be selected before matched as templates can, it has the
same effect has using match="//b"

Hope this helps you
