   True.  Jade will use the stylesheet given on the command line (via
the -d option) first, then look for a processing instruction in the
document which specifies the stylesheet, and then, as a last resort,
look for a stylesheet with the same sysid as the document, replacing
any extension with ".dsl".  But I think Bek was thinking in terms of a
"universal" default, as you put it.
