Yeah, that would definitely limit things a bit.  Have you add a look at  
the Dynamic Language Runtime at all?  It's open-sourced under the MSPL  
(the most liberal (BSD-like) license MSFT offers), runs on Mono quite  
well, and if the hooks were provided you could gain the advantage of  
writing extension functions in any DLR supported language which at present  
time is IronPython, IronRuby, Vista Smalltalk, (compiled) Javascript, and  
VBx (Dynamic VB.)  This would also pave the way for providing in-browser  
support via Silverlight which has the DLR embedded directly into its  
core.  And as per my last response to Abel, could provide the perfect  
bridge to both SpiderMonkey and Tamarin as well.  That's quite the  
language and technology span!

Of course at this stage of the conversation I think we've reached the  
edges of what can be tolerated as on topic for XSL-List.  I'll need to  
track down the mailing list first (shouldn't be too hard ;-), but I'll  
move this conversation to the Gestalt mailing list where it would  
obviously be more appropriate.  Abel, I assume you are subscribed to the  
Gestalt mailing list as well?
