Yes. XSLT allows all things, does all things.  Finding the appropriate 
declarative formulation can be a challenge :) But if we use existing, 
standard tools instead of rolling our own we are way ahead in the long 
run.  But I will admit that XSLT coding is non-trivial.  Even so, J. 
Random Hacker will be able to contribute patches to a style sheet more 
easily than a home grown tool that he has to learn from scratch, simply 
because XSLT is well documented -- and none of us has to do the 
documenting. :)
