If a website has a policy that its documents must be standards-conformant, 
then the fact that IE only supports text/xsl effectively prevents that 
website from using client-side XML.  That seems pretty serious to me.

While we're on the subject of the xml-stylesheet PI, I'm still hoping that 
someday IE will support multiple stylesheets and provide the user with a 
menu to select between them.
