Any XPath expression can be used.

Not at all.  Any implementation of CVA/genericode can be used.  That 
is why the OASIS committee rejected adopting any source code ... so 
that users would not feel obliged to use the source code from the committee.

For the OASIS CLRTC the interoperability is in the format 
specification.  It is up to implementations to interpret the file 
format according to the specification.  OASIS also does not do any 
kind of certification, so I'm not sure how you would ensure such 
interoperability.

I hope this helps.
