XSLT should never see these, since they are not part of the XPath data
model. They are not intended for the application to see, anyway; they are
for the XML parser's benefit. XSLT operates on parsed XML documents, not 
the raw input. For the same reason, character and entity references are 
not accessible from within XPath/XSLT.
