In XSLT 2.0 the pattern "x" will match any element named x, while //x will
match any element named x provided that the root of the tree containing the
x element is a document node. This definitely makes //x less efficient,
since you have to find out what kind of node you have at the top of the
tree.

(Saxon doesn't yet implement this distinction).
