Valid values for setParameter

[Elliotte Harold]

The JavaDoc for javax.xml.transform.Transformer says that they Object 
passed as the value of the parameter can be "any valid Java object. It 
is up to the processor to provide the proper object coersion [sic] or to 
simply pass the object on for use in an extension."

Are the coercions that Xalan performs documented anywhere? In particular 
is there any way to externally bind the value of a parameter to a 
node-set? I'd like to use a process external to Xalan to select some 
nodes, and then pass these nodes in as the value of a parameter. Can 
this be done?
