In 4.0 would it be a good idea to allow xsl:template/@priority to be
constructable based on, say, static parameters?
The motivation here are cases where I have wanted to adjust via parameters
how template priorities are weighted. One could argue that @use-when is
always available. But @priority is bound to gradated criteria, not merely
true or false.
An example use case:
<xsl:param name="priority-weight" as="xs:integer" select="-1" static="yes"
/>
<xsl:template ... priority = "{1 * $priority-weight}"/>
Authors then could specify rather nuance conditions for priorities.
I think this would be chaos if exposed to dynamic values. But static ones?
Again, just an idea.
