For someone like me who doesn't know a lot about sitemap and pipeline 
internals, this looks very logical and understandable. 

Logical extensions of this for other types of incomplete pipelines could 
then be:

  <map:pipeline type="source" name="xmlized-google">
    <map:generate...>
    <map:transform...>
    <!-- no serializer, this is a "source only" pipeline -->
  </map:pipeline>

(but source is not a good name, already used)

  <map:pipeline type="sink" name="fo2rtf">
    <!-- no generator, this is a "sink only" pipeline -->
    <map:transform src="fix-fo-for-jfor.xsl"/>
    <map:serialize type="rtf"/>
  </map:pipeline>

Not sure if this is already covered by other mechanisms though, but it looks 
logical for defining partial pipelines. 

Alternatively they could just be called "pipe" which IRL is a part of a 
"pipeline":

  <map:pipe type="transformer">
