Sorry, by "within a template" I meant "anywhere, not just at the
top-level". I didn't mean to imply directly inside xsl:template.

Very good point about attributes. I guess that the advantage of an
xsl:documentation element (over a documentation namespace) would be
that you could say that each XSLT element contains an optional
xsl:documentation element as its first child, with the semantic that a
xsl:documentation element provides documentation for the element in
which it's nested.
Cheers,
