Does anyone have any more information about the browser selector?
Specifically, how to pass its value into a pipeline as a parameter to
the XSLT?

Let me try again in a shorter post :-)
1. Has anyone ever used the browser selector?
2. Can it be used to pass the *value* to a transformation as a
parameter without resorting to map:when, instead of just doing
selection?
Isn't the "value" of the browser selector the same as the "user-agent"
header value?
I don't think so.
http://cocoon.apache.org/2.1/userdocs/browser-selector.html says:
<map:select type="browser">
<map:when test="netscape">
....
</map:when>
<map:when test="explorer">
...
</map:when>
...
<map:otherwise>
...
</map:otherwise>
</map:select>
In other words you can take alternate action based on the test="..."
value, but you cannot pass that actual value into the XSLT as a parameter.
You can just pass-in the header to the transformation... No need for
the browser selector.
But then I'd have to parse the user-agent string in my XSLT. The whole
point of the browser selector is that it's done for you in the sitemap.
