Re: AW: p.wrap and attributes

Yes, perhaps. I tend (personally) to favor small, simple composable steps over large, complicated ones. After all, you’ve got access to XQuery or XSLT if you want to do something complicated. But in the steps that add elements, being able to specify attributes for those elements might make sense.

Just in passing, I’ll observe that the simpler-than-XSLT workaround is:

<p:wrap match="xhtml:p[@class='reflist-item']"
        wrapper="ex:my-random-name"
        group-adjacent="@class"/>

<p:set-attributes match="ex:may-random-name"
        …/>

<p:rename match="ex:my-random-name"
          new-name="{{httpns}}div"/>

                                        Be seeing you,
