Your style sheet essentially contains rules how to transform the source
document into this result document. XSLT already does this nicely, your
style sheet would look similar to this:
...
<xsl:template match='s'>
<xinclude:include>
<xsl:apply-templates/>
</xinclude:include>
<xsl:template match='s'>
<xsl:template match='t'>
<xinclude:fallback>
<xsl:apply-templates/>
</xinclude:fallback>
<xsl:template match='t'>
...
Along with the idenity transformation and the necessary namespace de-
clarations. There is no place for this in CSS as that would create a
number of problems, e.g. if you use s:hover { namespace: ... }.
