But if a general (scope selector based) document querying API was  
provided, you can strike all but the redefinition of the  
transformation (and I guess you can argue that the scope selector is  
also duplicated).

So I think there are too few use-cases for this feature, and having to  
maintain the same regexp in two bundle items is probably a small price  
for the complexity I then don’t have to add to the TM code base ;)
