Although I haven't used XSLT 2.0/XPath 2.0 yet, I would greatly like to see Xalan supporting this. I have done numerous projects using XSLT and hit several times the limitations of 1.0 -- be it due to the very limited string functionality or to the inability to reprocess result tree fragments. This often resulted in highly inefficient, recursive and tricky code or even in splitting of the processing into multiple steps. Looking into the 2.0 specs, it seems that I could solve a lot of my previous problems in a quite comfortable way. Also, I think that Sun has to move to 2.0 for the JDK at some point in time, and it would be quite sad if they had to choose a different implementation.
