Took a look at the patch and have got a couple of ideas how to simplify the
sitemap.

1. It seems to me that maybe it'd be better to use some sort of a special
protocol to find the appropriate source file instead of using a selector,
e.g.:

<map:generate src="i18n:cocoon:/{../1}{../2}{lang}.xml"/>

2. The second option is to extend the file generator with i18n capabilities
and use it simply as:

<map:generate type="i18n-file" src="cocoon:/{../1}{../2}.xml">
  <map:param name="locale" value="{locale}"/>
</map:generate>

the generator itself will try to find the source in this order:
    - cocoon:/{../1}{../2}_{lang}_{country}_{variant}.xml
    - cocoon:/{../1}{../2}_{lang}_{country}.xml
    - cocoon:/{../1}{../2}_{lang}.xml
    - cocoon:/{../1}{../2}.xml

Though, I'm not sure that implying that the file name consists of the main
part and an extension would fit all the needs.

Regards,
  Konstantin
