That would only get us to template level documentation, meaning
associating something like xsl:documentation with a template. Some have
been doing this by adding a name attribute to each template and then
make documentation with global html elements like:
<htm:div id="someTemplateName">
<htm:p>text describing the template</htm:p>
</htm:div>
to document
<xsl:template name="someTemplateName">
However, a documentation element would probably have the ability to be
more specific (meaning the target of the documentation). I would also
agree on a namespace for documentation constructs, including attributes
(much easier to tell what they document: the element on which they are
attached and it's child nodes).
Kindest regards,
Manos
