Can you give an example? I'm inclined to think this is not that common 
and on the wrong side of 80/20. I rarely use XPath variables myself, and 
when I do it's almost exclusively in passing parameters to XSLT 
templates, which doesn't apply here. I can always refer people who need 
fancier XPaths with variabales and such off to NUX or SAXON.
