In XSLT 2.0, of course, you can write:

<xsl:for-each select="1 to 10">
  <xsl:value-of select="."/>
  <xsl:text>&#xa;</xsl:text>
</xsl:for-each>

or even more concisely:

<xsl:value-of select="1 to 10" separator="&#xa;"/>

which is shorter than the Java version.

(You did want each number to be on a new line, didn't you?)
