Yes, if I have a stylesheet with multiple entry points then I tend to use
the "initial template" mechanism rather than "initial mode" to distinguish
them. In principle I've always felt "initial mode" should be a good idea
when you want to run one phase of a multi-phase stylesheet, but I've never
had occasion to put this idea into practice.
