  If the PI is inadequate, can anyone else come up with an alternative?
  Or perhaps a list of use cases that a solution should meet?

One alternative would be to accept that sending XML over the wire to be
styled on the client with a lightweight styling and transformation
language has not been a universally popular proposal, so to abandon the
XML experiment and revert back to using full SGML on a back end server
system and using dsssl rather than its lightweight younger sibling, XSL
to transform the in house semantically rich markup down to presentation
oriented formats such as html 2 and postscript and sens that over the
wire to be displayed on clients that don't need (and don't have) much
processing capability.
