No thanks, don't need more problems than I already have. ;~)
Not that it hasn't been massively oversold, but XSLT actually isn't a
bad tool within its original problem domain: basic transformation of
predictable XML content.
My usual reaction to XSLT was the same as yours, Thomas, but this is
pretty close to the core use case for the technology, ain't it?
And if all the diverse apps you're configuring do emit valid xhtml,
apache has an XSLT transform module mod_transform
<http://www.outoforder.cc/projects/apache/mod_transform/>.
Though piping everything through a hpricot based ruby filter seems like
more fun to me.
