One thing confuses me still about this syntax.  In Cocoon today the
transformer operates on incoming SAX events and can use what is in the src
parameter for whatever purpose it wants.  In many scenarios the src
parameter can be specified as "cocoon://whatever" so that the stylesheet
(or whatever the transformer requires) can be dynamically generated.  I'm
not sure how this is possible with the syntax proposed below.  Maybe you
can elaborate on how to do that?

Is the stylesheet of an XSLT transformation a parameter to the transformation service, or an integral part of the service?

Looking at the code below, I would assume the latter.
Does this mean that the stylesheet URI is defined in the
service declaration (<map:components> section)? How is this
compatible with sitemap parameter substitution?

I probably got something totally wrong, but the code example
really confuses me ...

you are really stating something like

 <generate type="http://cocoon.apache.org/services/generation/File";
src="blah.xml"/>
 <transform
type="http://cocoon.apache.org/services/transformation/blah2html"/>
 <serialize type="http://cocoon.apache.org/services/serialization/html"/>

and this solves *ALSO* the issue that was identified at the GT about
"virtual pipeline components" resolving services locally or remotely
(block-wise).
