One technique is to have a template:

<xsl:template match="*">
  <xsl:text/>Unmatched Element: <xsl:value-of select="local-name()"/>
  <xsl:apply-templates/>
</xsl:template>

This will then match any elements that would otherwise be handled by the
inbuilt 'default' template.

In order to find all elements without a matching template you would need
to ensure you only use the push technique, ie no xsl:for-each or
xsl:apply-templates select="...." so it's a little more involved than
just adding the above template.
