  But then there is a difference between XML and HTML (the former
is parsed but not the later).  Of course HTML is not XML, but in
an XML environment (that is, XProc), it makes sense to presume
that users will want to use the XML tools on the HTML documents.

  Of course, like for XML content btw, by overriding the content-
type on a per-request basis.
