I made the suggestion a while back that it should be possible to associate a
predicate with the root node just as with any other, e.g. xsl:template
match="/[invoice]". It wasn't accepted. This means that it's a bad idea to
apply-templates directly to the root of a tree other than the principal
source document, e.g. one obtained from document() or from an RTF variable.
Safer to use apply-templates match="/*".
