RE: XSL manipulating two XMLs

You should never implement the Source interface; the processor will only be
able to use its own implementations. When you write a URIResolver, it should
return a DOMSource, SAXSource, or StreamSource, or any other specific Source
that the chosen processor says it will accept.

But you don't need a URIResolver here, you just need to make sure the XSLT
processor knows the base URI of the principal source document.
