Colin,

And in addition to the methods suggested by Henrik, you can also use
aggregate() in XPL, in an href expression. Are those methods along the
line of what you are looking for?

Colin,

if I have understood your question correctly, you have 2 options for
(decleratively) merging XML documents:
1. XSLT (http://www.orbeon.com/ops/doc/processors-xslt)
2. XUpdate (http://www.orbeon.com/ops/doc/processors-xupdate#d30e69)

It is my understanding that even though two XML documents have
identical structure (validates against the same schema), it does not
allow for any "shortcuts" (beyond possibly making it easier to create
your XPath expression).

Hope that helps.

Henrik
