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. Patches welcome, Clay... :)

I really doubt you want me to provide patches for anything other thatn web stuff. I mean, when I started at buy.com as a front-end web developer, they had me _committing_ ASP code into production on the 2nd day. The scary part is that I'd never (never!) done any ASP before I got that job! Fools! Anyway, I wouldn't know where to start. I would hope that the implementation of this feature should definitely have the ability to parse a little, so multiple paramters can be passed as in my EXAMPLE above (e.g., color=blue&date=%DATE%&clay=cool&fop=bitchin).
Aside fromthe occassional feature requests and web site fixes, I don't what I would PATCH...
:-P
