Without front-end tools, one needs a wide enough overview of these concepts

Do you plan to publish such a digest, a kind of 'XSL for dummies'?
I think also that somebody who can manage HTML with a little JavaScript,
even given a small subset a XSL, will surely be puzzled by such a
declarative language.
