That's the wrong question. It's "is XSL good for *XML*". XML right now
isn't the Web. The Web is moving in that direction, and will certainly be
embracing XML, but there's no real "there" there yet.
There is certainly overlap between CSS and XSL, and I don't think anyone's
attempted to say there's not -- but they're not mirror duplicates either,
and both have their place in the large world of internet-based documents.
