I received the following from a post to the fop-user@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx  mailing
list.
when I looked into translate I see no clear way to capitalize each word.


    Renderers probably won't implement text-transform since it's deprecated:

http://www.w3.org/TR/xsl/slice5.html#section-N6706-Text-transform-Property

I believe using translate() in the xsl is the way to do case changes.
That shifts the i18n burden to the stylesheet writer:
