Re: [xsl] Group and change heading element

Hi,

Also under XSLT 3.0 we have

<xsl:mode on-no-match="shallow-copy"/>

which replaces the built-in template for anything with a template
(matching in "no mode") that copies it and traverses to its attributes
and children - i.e. with an identity template. So you don't have to
write one.

Some might say this makes XSLT harder to understand. Others might say
easier. :-)

Cheers, Wendell
