I found the solution. It seems the nodes have to be processed
recursively, otherwise, It looks like there is no way of solving the
problem (no way of controlling how unique pairs are generated. I
basically generate identical id's that are unique to the pairs of pages
following a page.figurex found in the <identity> tag. I create an
Identity tag on the first page following the first <identity
id="page.figure1" and I make sure that its corresponding page  has an
identical identity tag (that is the first page following the second
page that has an <identity id="page.figure1"). The same logic applies
to all following pages in figure1 and figure2 also.
