The requirements you propose do not result in the behaviour you describe.

The interaction of XSLT processors with the event loop and with document load
is not defined. We'd have to define both of those, and then have all the
machinery we have for XML parsers, to get XSLT processors defined well enough
that this would all work as you describe. I don't propose to do that in the
HTML spec (to start with, I don't understand XSLT well enough).

Instead, I've added some hand-wavy non-normative text based on your bullet
points in comment 3. I hope it's enough. Let me know if you want more.
