Does anyone have thoughts on the suitability of xslt/techniques for transforming non-nested structures to nested ones? e.g.
Given input such as:


<para role="h1">Text</para>
<para/>
<para/>
{deleted stuff...}
<para role="h1">
....

produce output such as:

<para role="h1"><para>Text</para>
<para/>
<para/>
{deleted stuff...}
</para>

...where the appearance of the second <para role="h1"> effectively marks the closure of the preceeding one.
