Its a fair point, but I don't think its new. The X* specs were created 
in public, by "users", not implementors (per se), and they almost all
seemed to have decided that entities should not survive a parse. Take
them to task, but take them on at a higher level than XSLT, imho.

speaking as a user, I find xinclude easier to understand than entities 
anyway :-}
