Every now and then, people (not me) want to represent a Map<K,V> in XML by using s.th. like <map> <k1>v1</k1> <k2>v2</k2> ... </map> with ki from K and vi from V. Apart from the obvious limitation for K's values, I feel that this is somehow violating the spirit of XML. But this is not a list for XML, and I don't want to risk a red or yellow card. So, more specifically: Doesn't such a "structure" complicate the writing of XSLT constructs? Aren't there any statements or expressions that won't be usable at all? (I don't need an exhaustive list of what isn't possible - I'm more interested in a general judgment.) Thanks -W
