> Section 16. of the XSLT 1.0 recommendation ( see http://www.w3.org/TR/xslt )
> says this:
> <<
> A stylesheet may contain multiple xsl:output elements and may include or 
> import stylesheets that also contain xsl:output elements. All the xsl:output 
> elements occurring in a stylesheet are merged into a single effective 
> xsl:output element. For the cdata-section-elements attribute, the effective 
> value is the union of the specified values. For other attributes, the 
> effective value is the specified value with the highest import precedence. It 
> is an error if there is more than one such value for an attribute. An XSLT 
> processor may signal the error; if it does not signal the error, if should 
> recover by using the value that occurs last in the stylesheet. 
> >>
> Even after this is done one can use the JAXP API 
> Transformer.setOutputProperty(name,value) or 
> Transformer.setOutputProperty(java.util.Properties) to override values in the 
> stylesheet, that would be in its "single effective merged xsl:output element".
> In the spirit of what the stylesheet does, it would seem that if a 
> cdata-section-elements property is set, it should not override the 
> stylesheets set of sections, but be a union with it, just as the xsl:output 
> cdata-sections-elements form an effective union. This is unlike other 
> xsl:output attributes.
> The effective xsl:output attributes can be modified with mulitple calls to 
> Transformer.setOuputProperty(String name, String value) and/or 
> Transformer.setOutputProperty(java.util.Properties)
> However the serializer is brittle with respect to multiple such calls namely:
> - cdata-section-elements from JAXP do merge with the stylesheets values, they
> replace the stylesheets values
> - Writers can be lost
> - properties with namespaces, where the name part of the property is of the 
> form 
> "{uri}localname"  are not properly handled, (i.e. it doesn't parse the uri 
> from within the curly braces).
> The code needs some re-work to make it robust.
