XML / XSL Disparity

I am writing a very simple, Java based, search engine for XML
documents.  I commonly use XSL for presentation of my XML
documents.  I find that it is useful to modify or add to the contents
of the XML using XSL for presentation purposes. Are there any
provisions for allowing a user to search for what they see and get the
correct
document/view using a general purpose search engine?  Obviously,
one can not just search the XML file.

As an example, imagine a date stored as 19980604 in an XML file.
An XSL file converts that to 06-04-1998 for presentation.  The user
writes that date down and later searches for it but....

Any advice is appreciated.

Thanks,
