But the RESULT of apply-templates does - the fact that the arguments are
hardcoded was mentioned in the original question - key() wasn't working and
I was trying to figure out why by harcoding the arguments to compare the
behavior.   

I appreciate the explanation in the rest of the mail, however, I do think
it's odd but I understand it now, and thanks for the breakdown on variable
scope as well.  Thanks.
