Mark,
I'm not familiar with all the pieces of the picture you describe.
So when you reference a channel this way in the theme stylesheet, what
does the XSL look like? Not like this, I presume...
<xsl:copy-of select="//[EMAIL PROTECTED] = 'fragment-admin']"/>
That's how the 'fragment-admin' does it, and it's also similar to the
way the 'Login' channel gets pulled into the layout.
Once or twice in the past I've herd other folks describe a feature I'd
really like to see: the ability to add channels to a DLM fragment that
'percolate' up to the header or footer. So if you're an admin and you
(therefore) get the Administration fragment, part of what you get could
be the 'fragment-admin' channel which appears in the header/sidebar area.

NIce addition Drew. One thought though. Having channels added into the
header and footer area of the layout causes everyone to get them in
their layout in the DB regardless of whether they can use them or not. I
added a feature to DLM some time ago allowing such channels to be
referenced in the theme stylesheet via their functional name rather than
require that they be channels located in the user's layout. This makes
use of the transient layout manager for instantiating them and using
them during the user's session without adding bulk to their layout. Have
you investigated use of that approach to alleviate adding more to the
headers and footers?
