Going off on a tangent here ... that is a subject which intrigues me. 
It is clear that much of XSLT2 really does offer simpler ways of doing
things that are possible but tedious in XSLT 1.  It's hard to know,
before XSLT 2 gets into people's hands and the wheat and chaff get
sorted out by experience, which parts reflect the the voice of
experience, and which parts are "second system syndrome".  Anyone want
to offer opinions?
