Can anyone suggest an XHTML editor?  ekit (which is what I've identified as
an editor) doesn't (afaik) support outputting as XHTML.

yes, an XSLT processor _and_ a stylesheet.  That is what I was asking for.
I could certainly go and implement whatever parts of a stylesheet that are
required for the minimal usage of FOP's instructions that I am using, but it
seems hard to believe that this requirement hasn't come up before, and
someone else out there hasn't done it.
