Ahhh, if ONLY that were true :-( ... sadly, XMLT(FO) is still a 
looooooooooong way from getting to be even a feeble shadow of 
what DSSSL nearly became. 

I personally don't think we'll ever be able to catch up with where we 
were back in 1994. So many babies have been thrown out with so 
little bathwater .... architectural forms is just one victim.
