I don't have a list of problems, but I've used SA transforms in the
past for result validation and validation of temporary structures in
variables.  The "killer app" here is generating strict XHTML.

I've never really had the need for input validation, and I don't think
relying on it is a good idea.  It would be good though, if given an
input xsd the processor could tell you unreachable parts of your xslt.
