Since XSL has nothing to do with HTTP (it can be run in systems that never
touch the Internet), it wouldn't make sense to have this as part of XSL.  At
best, it can only be up to a system (such as Cocoon) that wraps XSL and
handles HTTP requests to provide an interface between HTTP request
parameters and XSL parameters.  

What platform do you want to invoke XSL from and which XSL processor?  It
is, for example, pretty easy to write a Servlet that passes request
parameters as XSL parameters.
