Are character-maps supported in Cocoon 2.1? I need to replace < and

get it to work in Cocoon. I have the following character-map in my XSLT:
<xsl:output use-character-maps="cm1" method="xml" indent="yes"
encoding="UTF-8" media-type="text/xml"/>
        
<xsl:character-map name="cm1">
        <xsl:output-character character="&lt;" string="&lt;"/>
        <xsl:output-character character="&gt;" string="&gt;"/>
</xsl:character-map>

This works fine outside of cocoon (e.g. in Oxygen). But when I run it
through the second transformer in the following pipleline:

<map:match pattern="terms">
        <map:generate src="{request-param:url}" type="html"/>
        <map:transform type="xslt2" src="transforms/getTerms.xsl"/>
        <map:transform type="xslt2"
src="transforms/convertStringToXML.xsl"/>
        <map:serialize type="xml"/>
</map:match>

... the &lt; and &gt; characters do not get replaced (remain escaped).
Is this something to do with the xml serializer? Do I need to change
something there?

disable-output-escaping (and it seems also charater-map) only passes 
serializer hints along with the actual XML. With a second transformation 
following the one using disable-output-escaping these hints get lost. 
That's why you should not use this "feature" in Cocoon. It only works in 
a non-streaming environment, where you serialize after each transformation.
