[Mav-user] Proposed XSLTransform Modification

[Mike Moulton]

I would like to propose a minor modification to maverick that would 
allow XSL templates used in a XSLTransform to be loaded from a 
java.net.URL. Additionally, any template that was loaded from a 'file:' 
URL could optionally be monitored, to have the cache (if used) updated 
if and when the monitored file is changed.

An example of how the change would effect the maverick.xml file is 
shown below:

        <command name="index">
            <controller class="some.controller.package.Index" />
            <view name="success" type="domify">
                <transform type="xslt" 
path="file:/home/mmoulton/xsl/index.xsl" monitored="true"/>
                <transform type="xslt" 
path="file:/home/mmoulton/xsl/template.xsl" />
            </view>
        </command>

In this example the index.xsl would be loaded from the local path of 
/home/mmoulton/xsl, if this file is modified on the system, then those 
changes would be reflected in the compiled XSL. Similarly the 
template.xsl would be loaded from the local filesystem, however changes 
would not be detected and a maverick config reload / app server restart 
would be required to reflect any changes.

Is this functionally beneficial to maverick as a whole?
