Most of the XSLT servlets are doing so, at least in their basic
configurations.

As Didier mentioned, the source document is really a XML document that
is transformed on the server.

It can be seen as weird, but not more that serving HTML documents with
.php or .asp extensions since in this case it's also the result and not
the source that is sent to the browser.
