I'd start with experimenting with the <xsl:sort> element in your
stylesheet.
I've never used it to sort anything more complex than alphabetizing a
list of <controlaccess> terms but it may have the functionality to do
part of what you want. Generating alternative presentations will
probably require some script outside of XSLT.
