Well, if I were to guess why this has not caught on before now, it is
because Netscape did not support it, and developers do not want to make
a page that cannot be supported on Netscape; and equally because IE only
supported the WD-xsl namespace by default and developers had to do funny
tricks to make IE support the *real* XSLT namespace. IE6 *and* NS6.1
both support the correct namespace "out of the box". This is something
I have been hoping for for two years, and now I can hear bells ringing
in the sky :-) Happy days are here, and I expect we will finally see
some people using client-side XSLT more commonly.
