The match pattern is:

variablelist[*[position() = 1 and (self::title or self::varlistentry)]
             and not(*[position() > 1 and not(self::varlistentry)])
            ]

Thanks.

The length and complexity of that XPath reinforces my request for some verx simple syntax/function, so that the length and the level of simplicity of the content model is matched by the matching pattern:

eg
variablelist[content-model(../, 'title?,varlistentry+')]

In other words: (title?,varlistentry+) is so *very* simple, that I think there should be way to write it in a very simple way.
