Yes but this isn't a restriction of XSL (or the MSXSL implementation)
It's a restriction of XML. You can not have a literal < in an attribute
value. So if you want the output to be XML there is no way to get what
you want, even if you used a non standard extension function.
You can have literal < in HTML (because that's SGML not XML) so an
alternative would be to use the HTML output method.

You don't need the  disable-output-escaping here (although it does no harm)
