General trick for re-applying recursivly/iteratively a

In general when I apply a XSLT script then one rule/template is matched at a time (for one node).
Then the XSLT script is stopped. 

Imagine for example a template which deletes (only) the current leaves of
an XML node tree. When the current leaves are removed then there are new leaves.

Is there a general (!) trick to re-apply the script on the resulting XML doc again?

Again: I am not searching for a specific solution but a general trick which works for (almost) all
XSLT scripts. The processing should only stop with the re-application when there is no difference
any more between input and output XML.

This general trick should preferably work with XSLT v1.1 (if not possible then v2.0 is ok as well).

Is there such a way?
