Yes, this is (to my mind, at least) one of the
big problems with XSLT.

Well, you can't use a standard off-the-shelf
XML editor if you want it to be able to check
that your XSLT code is correct (ie validate).

So I guess you'll have to hunt down a custom-built
XSLT editor (I think IBM might have a pre-release
of something).

So this is the way forward?!?

Every new namespace-based spec requiring
custom-written tools? Wasn't XML supposed
to standardise things?

(And before you flame me, I _can_ see that
there are very good reasons for XSLT to
be the way it is. The limitations of the
approach still remain though.)

Just my $0.02,
