My original intention in "evaluating" the DOM object was to support the macro factility in JXTemplate. But in its current state the macro facility is pretty much useless.
Why exactly useless? I haven't used it yet but is seems like something useful. Doesn't it work?
So I'm +1 on removing <macro> completely and changing the code to simply stream DOM objects as SAX events. Do you want to make that change? If so, please go ahead. Otherwise let me know and I'll do it when I have time.
If you could do it, that would be very nice. I don't need it done urgently.
What would be interesting is to mimic the behaviour of <xsp:expr> : there are a number or rules that lead to the production of XML content (see XSPHelper), which include checking if the expression result is a DOM node or implements XMLizable.
