I believe Paul is referring to the use of JADE's custom flow objects (for
emitting SGML or XSL syntax) that can be specified in a DSSSL style
specification to transform an SGML or XSL instance into another instance
perhaps conforming to a different DTD than the original.

This is *very* powerful and *very* useful as it stands today.
