I'd like something like
   match="(foo|bar)/child"

but of course that doesn't work.

match="foo/child | bar/child"

Any suggestions on a simpler syntax then what I've come up with ?
Note that this is programmatically generated XSLT so I cant easily
hand-optimize simple cases, it needs to work in the 1-N case in a way that's
reasonably constructible programmatically.

I do this in the programmatically-generated Context/Value Association (CVA) file in the UBL project ... check the generated XSLT near the bottom of:

http://docs.oasis-open.org/ubl/prd1-UBL-2.1/cva/UBL-DefaultDTQ-2.1.cva

... especially the <Context> element with metadata="cctsV2.01-quantity".

I hope this helps.
