I think it would be interesting to explore the solution space that can
be implemented by an XSLT transform, preferably XSLT 1.0. (I don't think
people are married to the &fubar; syntax; it's more like they're stuck
with it.)
At least, this space should be exhausted before changes to XML or
specialized preprocessors are invoked.
