As those of you who were at XML Prague will know, we're currently working on an XSLT implementation where stylesheet compilation happens on the server, but execution happens in the browser. This is therefore dependent on the XML parsers provided by the browser vendors, and these notoriously have very weak DTD support. I'm proposing to mark those tests that require DTD support (e.g. identification of ID attributes, expansion of fixed/default attribute values, notification of unparsed entities) with the dependency <feature value="dtd"/>. There is wriggle-room in the spec here: we explicitly say that processors are allowed to construct the source tree from XML using algorithms different from the "construction from an Infoset" process described in the XDM specification.
