Oh look! The ofice prefix (ns http://openoffice.org/2000/office)
isn't declared in the xslt.

  There's the problem
assuming document-content has the office:prefix

<xsl:value-of select=3D"count(/office:document-content/*)"/> will return=20
the actual count?

which is probably one, since it is the root of the document?

Different to what?
A compliant xslt engine shouldn't match.

Since office uses namespaces so widely, I think that unlikely?
