Wouldn't that perhaps cause problems with an innovative XSLT Processor that
actually *could* interpret the documentation and do something useful with
it (perhaps giving the documentation when a particular template breaks for
some reason)?  In these cases, the advanced XSLT processor would ignore the
xsl:fallback, and hence not do the actual processing.

Admittedly that's not a problem at the moment, but when some generous soul
writes an extension element for SAXON for interpreting documentation in our
stylesheets, then it will be :)
