Re: Arbitrary XML document merge and styling with XSLT

Think of a mode (or name) of a template in xslt like te name of a
function in C or most other compiled languages, the names need to be
known at compile time.

Since your stylesheet has a fixed (usually small) set of modes
your top level template can have a simple
<xsl:choose>
 <xsl:when test="mode"='a'"><xsl:apply-templates mode="a"/></xsl:when>
 <xsl:when test="mode"='b'"><xsl:apply-templates mode="b"/></xsl:when>
