Re: Dynamic DTD declaration in output

In XSLT 2.0 you can do:

<xsl:template match="/">
  <xsl:result-document doctype-system="{$DefaultDTDPath}" method="xml"
encoding="utf-8">
    ....
  </xsl:result-document>
</xsl:template>

I know the following is invalid but the purpose of this post is to ask if
there is any way of engineering an equivalent:
