The odd thing about this xsl:output is that it doesn't specify the
method attribute. It's not easy to tell whether the stylesheet will
default to using XML or HTML output. I would recommend always specifying
the method attribute - it's good for documentation and debugging, and it
can actually help performance because the rules for selecting a default
are run-time rules rather than compile-time.
