That doesn't pass the node, it just passes the reference (i.e. the tag name),
which will be resolved from the XML source document that you are transforming,
in the current transformation context (i.e. from within the node you are
operating on).

I think your best bet to pass tree content is through XSLT extension elements
or XPath extension functions.
