I can't think of any way the .NET framework supports his scenario besides what you outlined below. It seems like a very odd thing to require that a native GUI application be built with XSLT, like asking that a web page be built with C++.

	this does not have any XSLT in it as far as I remember but it does show
	the implementation of an xml based GUI language for Windows Forms, the
	only use for xslt in that scenario that I can see would be to generate
	the xml files from some other xml instance.
