Feature request: multiple file output

I have a feature request that I hope you find worthwhile to consider.

I'd like to be able to direct my processing of a single input file to
output multiple files from within a single XSL script.

Something along the lines of:

<xsl:template match="show">
  <xsl:for-each select="./slide">
    <xsl:entity name="{attribute(id)}.htm">
       <html>
         <xsl:process-children/>
       </html>
    </xsl:entity>
  </xsl:for-each>
</xsl:template>

or even

<xsl:template match="volume">
  <xsl:for-each select="./book">
    <xsl:entity name="{attribute(filename)}">
      <fo:page-sequence>
        <fo:simple-page-master
                page-width='8.5in'  page-height='11in'
                header-size='.5in'  footer-size='.5in'
                margin-top='1in'    margin-bottom='1in'
                margin-left='.75in' margin-right='.5in'>
          <xsl:process-children/>
        </fo:simple-page-master>
      </fo:page-sequence>
    </xsl:entity>
  </xsl:for-each>
</xsl:template>

Thanks!

................... Ken
