Sorry, I didn't understand that James was suggesting that FooXlate would
still be invoked. I thought he was suggesting the entire translation would
be accomplished with a generic XSL processor.

Can someone please translate the above from James as I don't think I got
it. Does he mean the XSL proceesor will invoke FooXlate or just that it is
aware of definitions in the FooXlate namespace?
