1) I need to match an element A provided it is one of the first three

2) I need to match element B provided all its preceding siblings are
any or all of elements W, X, or Y. Again, I could use xsl:if
statements to apply the conditional logic.
I can't seem to wrap my head around how to do these things. It should

B[not(preceding-sibling::*[ ... check names here ... ])].
