BTW, I have tried to fit in Wendell's line (correcting some minor typos)

<xsl:variable name="chunk-number"
select="count(preceding-sibling::*[exists(my:chunk-started-by(.))]) + 1"/>
But it seems that this does not count correctly because chunks that
were started earlier need not correspond to preceding siblings only.
In this case, you need to alter the preceding-sibling axis to
something smarter.
A key or another custom function might be your best bet, if not the
preceding:: axis. (But beware of performance hindrances with
preceding::, as it's expensive and you're already incurring potential
expense in processors without optimization by calling
my:chunk-started-by() repeatedly.)
Cheers,
Wendell
