First, I think that your statement that we have only 2 major XSLT 2.0

Altova.

I will include it.


In gestalt, the collection function currently only accepts a file: URI which
must be a legitimate file URI
pointing to a directory. All files in this directory that sucessfully parse
as xml create a document node in the directory.

If your proper documentation for Gestalt has something of interest for the collection() function, I will link to it.

Secondly, it would be better in your example to change the template with
match="/" to one with name="initial". Asking the user to supply a dummy
document is senseless.

As far as I know name="initial" is only a method some processors support and only from the command line or from other code. When testing, many people just use an XML Editor?

I will see if can improve my text.
