3.0 will provide a default initial template, which you get by naming the 
template xsl:initial-template. However, since the XSLT spec doesn't 
define APIs, the exact effect depends on the API design. On the Saxon 
command line I'll probably change it so -it without an option value 
means -it:xsl:initial-template.
