There is nothing like this in current sitemap implementation. Can
suggest you two ways around this problem:
1. Use action to set parameters as the top element in the pipeline:
<map:pipeline>
<map:act type="set-param or something">
<!-- define -->
<map:parameter name="login_url" value="......"/>
...
<!-- use parameter. Count levels and put correct amount of "../" -->
<map:redirect-to src="{../../../login_url}"
...
</map:Act>
</map:pipeline>
2. XML entities:
<map:redirect-to src="&login_url;"/>
