Re: [Ann] Oxygen XML Editor version 23 release

I have to agree with the others. XSLT 1.0 is unfortunately still very
prevalent, and I sometimes need to use MSXML to see what quirks it produces.
(There's quite a few of them!)

If you are really keen on removing them, I would at least consider making them
available as easily installable plugins.

By the way, Geert, I don't think MSXML supports debugging, at least in my
Oxygen version it switches to Saxon when I try that.
