Other way round.
In your specialization layer, set a variable to 'measure' whatever
you want, then set the parameter from that?

<xsl:variable name ='density'>
<xsl:choose>


</

<xsl:param name='chunk.section.depth' select='$density'/>


I'm not sure if you can replace variable with param, worth
a try though.
