This might be one approach. Another one could be with an Action like this:
<map:match pattern="annotation/*"
<map:act type="fileexists" src="annotation/{1}">
<map:parameter name="default" value="annotation/default.xml"/>
<map:generate src="{the-file}"/>
</map:act>
<map:transform src="annotation.xsl"/>
</map:match>
the mentioned Action will check for the file and return a Map containing
"the-file" as the key and the filename as its value depending on the existance
test (either the value of the source attribute or of the parameter "default").
