I'm motivated to try to satisfy part of comment #26 in that we could easily support non-XML output methods (e.g. 'text' and 'html') by saying that these are wrapped in a c:result element. This would require some knowledge of the output method. Certain APIs for XSLT do not provide that information easily as the result of the transformation is streamed to the receiving object. As a result, this could be difficult to implement this. ...but supporting text or html might be really nice. For example, a simple pipeline could transform a document into *HTML* using html serialization and then use the http-request step to send it to a web service (e.g. a PUT request to store it). -- --Alex Milowski "The excellence of grammar as a guide is proportional to the paucity of the inflexions, i.e. to the degree of analysis effected by the language considered."
