There is no way for a macro to do what you want because a macro is
executed in the context of a single document view. I mean, invoking
command XXE.edit will indeed cause XXE to switch to another document,
but the macro will still continue its execution in the context of the
original document.
(This is not a bug. Macros have been designed to function that way.)
Now I don't understand why you need to explicitly invoke
updateInclusions+refresh, because normally saving the changes made to
the left document will automatically bring the view of the right
document up to date.
I suspect that your problem does not come from that the fact that the
transclusions are not up to date. I think that the transclusions in the
right document are up to date after saving the left document to disk,
but that your problem comes from the fact that, in your CSS, you use
xpath().
