Easy. Hopefully you are using an XSLT processor that implements these
instructions:

<xsl:template match="h1|h2|whatever">
   <xsl:element name="name(.)">
      <xsl:call-template name="stdTemplate">
         <xsl:with-param name="currentnode" select="."/>
      </xsl:call-template>
   </xsl:element>
</xsl:template>

<xsl:template name="stdTemplate">
   <xsl:param name="currentnode"/>
   ...stuff that processes currentnode goes here...
</xsl:template>
