Absolutely.  I think there are several output methods that might be
useful to standardise on, so that you can get URL encoding and named
entities rather than character entities where appropriate.

For example:

  exslt:xhtml
  exslt:svg
  exslt:mathml
  ...

Any other suggestions for standard output methods?

Cheers,

Jeni
