I didn't say that they should be recompiled for every transformation.  A
Templates object should be created once, and then reused over and over,
same as a Translets class.

I agree with this absolutely.  My point was that when the precompilation
takes place, and the details of storage, should be up to the application as
much as possible.

No.  A stylesheet is compiled everytime a user wants to instanciate a
Templates object.  When they use a Transformer object, it simply creates an
instance of the Translets class.

It feels like we have a misunderstanding developing partly due to email
static.  Can we set up a time to talk about this over the phone?
