In the opposite corner;

1. Compliance.
  Xalan has always been one or two steps behind Saxon.
2. XSLT 2.0 is available
  has features which are 1.0 extensions.
  Saxon is available (and compliant now)

I can't see a reason to stay with Xalan?

what about making it configurable? For instance Apache Cocoon allows to configure the XSLT processor, because for example sometimes XSLTC is better than Xalan and sometimes it's the opposite.
