You could do an identity transform that uses Saxon's type-annotation()
extension to attach a type attribute to each element... something
like:

<xsl:template match="node()">
	<xsl:copy>
		<xsl:copy-of select="@*"/>
		<xsl:attribute name="type" select="saxon:type-annotation(.)"/>
		<xsl:apply-templates select="node()"/>
	</xsl:copy>
</xsl:template>
