I don't think that the spec explicitly states this, but it does seem to  
suggest it:

A control without an appearance hint may display the result differently  
 from the same control with an appearance hint, regardless of the value of  
the appearance attribute.

So
   <output ref="x"/>
   <output ref="x" appearance="full"/>
   <output ref="x" appearance="compact"/>
   <output ref="x" appearance="minimal"/>

may all produce different representations of the same value.
