he answered a similar question, but to get the depth of all nodes, one
can do a simpler and more efficient method of just having a parameter
with the current depth.

so make every template have
<xsl:param name="x"/>
and have
<xsl:template match="/">
  <xsl:apply-templates>
   <xsl:with-param name="x" select="0"/>
  <xsl:apply-templates>
</xsl:template>


and make every other call to apply templates look like:

  <xsl:apply-templates>
   <xsl:with-param name="x" select="$x+1"/>
  <xsl:apply-templates>
