Ultimately what I am trying to achieve here is:
1. Retrieve a remote image
2. Add some text to the image via SVG
3. Output as jpeg

I can do this for a local image just not a remote image.
Is it possible?

Something like this:
--
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<xsl:stylesheet version="1.0"
xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform";>
  <xsl:template match="/">
    <svg:svg xmlns:svg="http://www.w3.org/SVG"; width="100px" height="100px">
      <svg:g>
        <svg:image xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink"; width="100"
height="100}">
          <xsl:attribute name="xlink:href"> <xsl:text>http://</xsl:text>
<xsl:text>www.absnetwork.com.au/abs_consult-106079.jpg</xsl:text>
</xsl:attribute>
        </svg:image>
        <svg:text x="10" y="10">Some text</svg:text>
      </svg:g>
    </svg:svg>
  </xsl:template>
</xsl:stylesheet>
