First, you only have to quote expressions that are simple strings. <px:step> <p:with-option name="opt" select="'some string'"/> And if the expression is only a simple string, *use the shortcut*: <px:step opt="some string"/> it doesn't require quoting and is easier to read. Second, our semantics for select are exactly the same as the XSLT semantics. I'm sort of expecting most of our users will have some XSLT experience.
