But it complicates things (the DTD, the processors, ...) and is easily done
using modes or more specific XPath matches in STANDARD xslt.

Using your example:

<xsl:template match="NAVBAR_ITEM/a" ...

or

<xsl:template match="a" mode="navbar" ...

Is that the usual manner? I learned by reading tutorials (thanks, Norman,
Michael, ...), inspecting examples (yes, it is PART of learning) and eventually
the standards.

And from this list. :)
