I think the solution lies in 2.7.2 Literal results elements of the XSL 
Draft:

Since an XSL processor acts on elements belonging to the XSL namespace, 
the problem arises of how to create elements belonging to the XSL 
namespace. A namespace whose URI is http://www.w3.org/TR/WD-xsl followed 
by one or more occurrences of /quote is called a quoted namespace. Quoted 
namespaces are treated specially: before a result tree is written out as 
XML all quoted namespace URIs in expanded names and in namespace prefix 
maps are unquoted by removing the final /quote.

The spec is not clear on where the /quote appears and there's no example 
and there's no mention of it in the XML Namespace recommendation. I tried 
different ways on adding /quote to XSL output to no avail, using Jame 
Clark XT.

Does anyone knows how to use /quote to be able to output XSL with XSL?
