Well you can, by writing xsl-value-of disable-output-escaping="yes".
But you only think you want to. What you really want to do is to get your
data structure right. If you store "<" characters in text nodes and expect
them to behave as markup, then you are in for a rough ride. If you want to
add a <font> element to your DOM, then add a <font> element, not a piece of
text that's got angle brackets in it.
