What's wrong with passing a parameter as you said? Isn't it more clear and robust?

Also, another question: is there something like a default mode, or a
global variable that says what mode should be called?
Not really. Much simpler: if apply-templates has a mode, it applies only to templates in the same mode. If it doesn't - it applies only to templates that don't have a mode.

I know i could do something like all of this with parameters, but..
Not something, but IMO exactly what you want to do.
