I think your only choice is to write your own function. If you are
dealing with more than a single national language your capitalization
function will need to be locale aware.

Probably the easiest way to do it would be with a simple Java extension.
Otherwise you'd have to do potentially complex tokenization using XSLT
code, which is non trivial in XSLT 1.0.
