Beyond the identity transform

transform beyond
As far as I can figure out, XSL can transform content into attribute 
values (pattern string expressions), attribute values into content 
(xsl:value-of), etc. These are pretty neat types of transformations. 

One thing it cannot do is generate GIs based on input GIs or attribute
values. The former operation is necessary to do the identity transform. 
The latter is one of the most enduring and popular transformational
devices in SGML processing. I hope that XSL will support both with the
same facility.
