I searched through old minutes and mailing list discussions.  I found the
minutes from the face-to-face meeting of April 2003[1] where there was a quite
explicit decision made by the WG that if no preceding node matches the "from"
pattern, counting should begin from the root of the tree.  The wording in the
XSLT 1.0 specification was taken into consideration in the discussion.

Of course there's nothing stopping the WG from reversing itself, but I just
wanted to point out that it does seem the WG considered the issues.
