descendant or self query

Is there a way to specify an xpath query for nodes underneath a parent 
node, with a given maxDepth, where maxDepth is something else than 1 or 
infinite?

no, this is not possible.

you could implement an extremely *ugly* workaround by using a property 
that keeps track of the nodes level and then do something like:
//element(*,my:type)[@level <= 10]
