(sounds like your plan is a good match to your problem so this is just a
FYI)

binding the XSLT specification gives you a way to generate XSL
documents. the old, experimental code generated ECS bound to a schema or
DTD in a similar fashion.

i can't think of any reason why this hasn't been done and i agree that
it shouldn't be too hard to do. so hope this answers your question :)
