In XSLT 2.0, of course, you can write:
<xsl:for-each select="1 to 10">
<xsl:value-of select="."/>
<xsl:text>
</xsl:text>
</xsl:for-each>
or even more concisely:
<xsl:value-of select="1 to 10" separator="
"/>
which is shorter than the Java version.
(You did want each number to be on a new line, didn't you?)
