XSLT empty tag representation

I have found in my work that it is sometimes helpful to produce XML
output that is not always parsed by a real XML parser. Specifically, it
would
be helpful if I could have an XSLT processing instruction which would
represent empty tags as <tag></tag> instead of <tag />. I do not
believe such an instruction currently exists in any XSLT
specifications and thought you might consider it for future versions.
