The only documentation I could find on this component is the javadoc
(which of course, thanks to the new myfaces-builder-plugin now
automatically appears in the taglib docs too). No complaints; it looks
fine. Just pointing this out in case I missed some other info somewhere.

This taglib text repeatedly uses the word "transform". For example, from
the overall summary:
<quote>
Transforms XML using and XSL stylesheet. Used to transform XML (from
either a String or URL) using either XSLT or Velocity.
</quote>

The descriptions on the various configurable attributes also use the
work "transform" repeatedly. For example "content" is documented as
"String containing the XML content to be transformed".

And all these existing descriptions seems fine; clear and easy to
understand.

So if "transform" is the right work to use when documenting this
component, it seems to me to be the right work to use in the component
*name* too.

JSF components generally use passive nouns as names ("h:checkbox",
"h:dataTable", "h:column", "h:commandButton"). The name "xmlTransform"
does sound a little more "active", but in a mathematical sense "a
transform" is an algorithm (a noun), so syntactically it seems
acceptable too.

So +1 for calling this "t:xmlTransform".

Regards,
Simon
