No, sorry. This only works for extremely simple

Probably a typo for CSV, comma-seperated values.
It should be rather easy to typeset csv data in table format. The
following tentative code ignores the fact that csv data may optionally
be enclosed in ""

No, xslt is a tool for arbitrary xml -> xml conversions (and a little
more than that). With a good implementation (say, saxon), wo

You can write a Word template isomorphic to a (pretty large) subset

Just ignore the detail of what xslt can and can't do for the moment.
That just influences the choice of tools for one particular step and we
all agree that there are tools for this step.

I did try that. But I don't see why it should help. After all, the
place I'm trying to do a \noalign is not inside some other \noalign and
that's the only thing \TABLEnoalign adds – as far as I read the source.

Salvete,
I just started to think about using ConTeXt on XML input files, so I've
got a question which should be easy to answer: My MathML source
generates presentation code which includes between a
function symbol and its arguments. I get a black rectangle for that;
I'd like ConTeXt to ignore

However, I only get the expected output from the third version. Any
workaround or bugfix?

My bad. I forgot the wrapper element. The spacing is perfectly

In my reading of 3.2.3.2, a should be italic, but abc

one place, to keep backward compatibility.)
