What restrictions do you want to set on the elements?

With Charteris'  XMuLator tool, you visually map nodes of a DTD or XDR onto 
a UML-ish semantic model of the domain. Do this for several XML languages, 
then the tool will generate XSL to transform from any one to any other - 
where their meanings overlap. (without meaning overlap you can't usefully 
transform anyway)

The XSL transformations pass round-trip tests. Mapping onto a common 
semantic model avoids an N-squared cost problem, as the number N of XML 
languages grows. As far as I can tell, Visual XSL Editor and BizTalk Mapper 
both have N-squared cost.
