So you'd both prefer "source" on viewport and for-each but
"xpath-context" on choose/when?

If that's what the group wants, I'm not going to stand in the way, but
there's a part of me that thinks it would be better for all three to
be the same or all three to be different.

In other wordes iteration-source, for-each-source, and xpath-context
or "source" in all three places.

(I had considered suggesting source in all three places myself, but
decided not to bother in the interest of getting to Last Call.)
