sXBL: Including non-SVG data

Perhaps I'm missing something here, but one key piece of functionality 
seems to be missing here. I can import bindings, but there's no obvious 
way to import the actual non-SVG data sXBL is being used to render. 
Perhaps this could be handled through JavaScript or XInclude, but it 
still seems like it should be called out in an example.

The use case is simple: I'd like to write an sXBL document that 
describes how to display MusicXML or MathML or some other source XML 
documents, without actually modifying the source documents. I'd like the 
sXBL which describes the presentation of the data as SVG to be 
completely separate from the actual data being displayed. The current 
approach feels like I'm embedding a document in the stylesheet.
