Have you considered abandoning the Muenchian approach and using the variable approach?
The Muenchian method works easily across the entire file, and as you say requires more convoluted values to work with subsets of the file. And it doesn't work when using a population of items across multiple files. But the variable method works for all cases: a subset of a file, an entire files and multiple files (though I never use it when the context is an entire file).
Over the years I've posted to this list a number of examples of grouping subsets of an instance by putting the population being grouped into a variable and then acting on the members found in that variable:
I hope this helps.

The problem is, I don't want to add up charges for the entire file. The file has many accounts. I want to to add up charges by type within each account.

I think the solution is to complicate the calculation of the keymap, by concatenating an identifier of the Account to the use="@TransTypeName" clause. Not yet tested.
