Well, this is something that is applicable to SGML in general not just to
XML. Since <?xml-stylesheet is no more reserved than <?stylesheet in SGML, I
would rather use simply <?stylesheet for SGML.  A general-purpose SGML
browser should probably make the keyword user configurable.

I prefer <?xml-stylesheet to <?xml-style because "stylesheet" is used when
linking to external stylesheets in HTML:

 <link rel=stylesheet type="text/css" href="style.css" title="A CSS style
sheet">

Right.  It would be relative to the entity containing the PI.
