Re: My favourite XSLT enhancement requests

| XSLT specification provides the adequate mechanism for this -

Alexey,

Please see:

  http://www.w3.org/TR/xslt11req.html

This is the first working draft of the requirements for
XSLT 1.1, wherein standardizing the extension function 
mechanism for ECMAScript and Java (and allowing for
other languages) is being worked on by the XSL Working Group
which includes as members the implementors of all of best
known XSLT engines like (in alphabetical order) 
MSXSL3, NovellXSL, OracleXSL, Saxon, Xalan, and xt.

Thanks.
