I think there is some misunderstanding. XT does 
not 'implement SAX'. I'l say that XT ( the only XSLT 
engine, I think ) is using SAX1 as the API to XT itself.

There are 2 separate parts in XT :

- one part ( slow ) takes SAX, builds DOM and transforms DOM 
- another part ( default, fast ) takes SAX, builds OM and transforms OM.
( See more on www.4xt.org )

None of existing XSLT processors have design other than XT
( there are some differences of course, but I think all of them
are based on proprietary OM-alike models, because 'plain DOM'
does not fly for XSLT ).

SAXON is a good choice. It has design similiar to XT, but 
provides a different ( TRAX ) API.
