Because I want to integrate this ultimately with the eXist XML DB, 
which tends to be oriented around XQuery.  Since I really have no 
experience with XQuery, I thought I'd try to start with a commandline 
version using Saxon, before trying to worry about the additional 
complexity of Cocoon.

To put it differently, the flat file version would be sort of 
demo/starting point; not the end-goal.
