I don't think you get that granularity with urlmon either, what you
get is filtering on the mime  type then the application that runs with
your mime type must determine if there is an xsl-stylesheet PI. I
suppose actually this is handled somewhere in Firefox's xslt processor
though, so to add code for specific PIs it should be done there.

There is also the default xslt that gets run with any xml file for
displaying it. I have done some hacking on that in the past but it
wouldn't go too far because there was problems gettng node-sets to
work, and javascript in the output wouldn't work (maybe this has
changed in the last couple of years, if anyone knows?)
so dependent on what you wanted to do you could maybe use that xslt to
handle it.

What is it you're trying to do?

I don't think so - that would enable me to say what to do when a file was
delivered with a mime type of application/xslt+xml.
But what is needed is to hook the action when firefox is to display an xml
file containing an xsl-stylesheet PI with type="application/xslt+xml".
