unicode entity
The XSLT engine doesn't see your entities. They are expanded by
the XML parser before
XSLT does his thing.

Then when the XSLT engine outputs the document it uses the
encoding you specified,
it can use characters encoded directly or numerical reference or
in the case of HTML output method,
named entities. But you can't tell XSLT what option to output.
