The result tree would simply be represented by a DOM Document.  This works for XML ->
XML transformations but not for other things.  The idea is that the XSL Processor
would be responsible for constructing this DOM Document.  You could of course do
things the way you mentioned, but it would likely add a little bit more overhead than
constructing the DOM Document directly.
