Check out the relevant part of the spec:
	http://www.w3.org/TR/xslt#modes

"...Both xsl:template and xsl:apply-templates have an optional mode attribute ... If xsl:template does not have a match attribute, it must not have a mode attribute. If an xsl:apply-templates element has a mode attribute, then it applies only to those template rules from xsl:template elements that have a mode attribute with the same value; if an xsl:apply-templates element does not have a mode attribute, then it applies only to those template rules from xsl:template elements that do not have a mode attribute..."
