We may be able to add a working "setParameter()" to the new XSLTInputHandler--which could then be used internally for command line parameter parsing--but I hate strengthening that wrapper because embedded users might use it, hence running away from JAXP, something I would much rather they become proficient in.
Still, we'll probably need to provide this in 1.0 for CL users. But to help embedded users, I think the examples/embedding/java/embedding/ExampleXML2PDF.java example needs updating to show a simple JAXP addParameter() call.
