You would get extra flexibility by issuing an "abstract query" from your stylesheet and using a URIResolver to convert it to a concrete eXist query.

The "abstract query" might be a URI such as

http://query/?citekeys= + $citekeys

which you could parse in your URIResolver using the methods available on the java.net.URI class.

There are two issues with the above approach. First, I can't code in Java (and barely get by with XSLT!). Second, and more importantly, I'd like to keep this a purely XSLT solution (indeed, it's why the query-over-http approach to begin with).

I had thought about maybe having one parameter option -- say called "bibdb" -- with possible options like: existxmldb, sru (a url-based query thing from the library world), flatfile, indocument, and another called "bibcollection", which would set could set either the collection in the xml db, or the directory on the file system.
