Re: using few or many templates?

One addendum.  I personally tend to use <xsl:apply-templates /> rather than
<xsl:value-of select="." />.  That way, it also catches any tags under the
current node, if there are any, and simply copies the text just as value-of
does.  Either one works equally well in this case, it's just a stylistic
difference.
