Perhaps I am using the wrong model.
        I pictured the XCCDF as an element in something larger such as a flight 
plan walkthrough.

Hi Brent

No, I'm not trying anything yet.  I'm just looking ahead to what I expect my 
next task will be, and trying to make sure I understand enough background 
information to be able to proceed when I get to it.

I'll interpret your comment as a recommendation that I plan on using multiple 
XCCDFs.  And probably multiple OVALs as well.

I do want to minimize the amount of cut-n-paste duplication.  So it would be 
nice if some of the minor differences can be handled by a single file with 
selectable options.  If that won't work, or if it's too difficult, then I'll go 
ahead with the cut-n-paste.
But I think it's worth spending some time to avoid it.

Enjoy!
