XSL is not a priority for the 5.0 release of Mozilla. They
are committed to being a "standards-compliant" browser and
XSL is not yet a standard. Plus, they have their hands full
trying to support CSS1, CSS2, DOM, etc. I don't think it
will take long after (if) XSL becomes a W3C Recommendation
to see support in Mozilla, especially if they adopt a 
Linux-like rapid-patching schedule.

I'm not going to rail against Microsoft for moving early to
support XSL, but I think we can all see the danger of forking
XSL development evident in recent threads.
