not at all : this is not a lack of functionality of XSLT, it is a lack 
of functionality of the navigator ; most navigators can invoke 
javascript functions, but they can't invoke XSLT
http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/interact/scripts.html

it would be possible, perhaps with something like this :
<META http-equiv="Content-Script-Type" content="text/xslt">
...
<a id="topPrimaryMenu1" ... onmouseover="&lt;xsl:call-template 
name='openMenu'&gt;&lt;xsl:with-param name='doc' 
select='$document'/&gt;&lt;xsl:with-param name='itsId' 
select='&amp;quot;navigationZone1&amp;quot;'/&gt;&lt;/xsl:call-template&gt;">
the template would just copy the entire entry except the element which 
ID is 'navigationZone1' that would be retemplated with the output style 
expected
of course, a navigator should supply means to bind the XSLT namespace to 
xsl (by using the usual xmlns declaration) and to bind $document to the 
DOM document (just like it does for javascript with many objects)

but it would be somewhat useless :
-as XSLT can be already invoked from javascript
-the escape sequence is somewhat ugly
