Yes, parameter should apply to external rules as well, because of the
following sentence in 5.4:

"The rules contained in the referenced document MUST be processed as if
they were at the top of the rules element with the XLink href attribute."

However spec doesn't define what to do if there are two parameters with
the same name. We should define that in the case of naming conflict
later definition wins, which will also allow overriding of parameters
coming from external rules.
