Aha!  It works!  And one short hour after I sent the email throwing in the
towel on <xsl:copy-of>.  ;-)  (I had to change
boolean(/employee/@FullSecurity) to number(/employee/@FullSecurity), though.
boolean() seems to just check whether there *is* a FullSecurity attribute,
but if I change it to a number, then the test attribute is changed to a
Boolean for me, and it works properly.  I assume I could be even more
explicit, and say boolean(number(blah))...)

Now all I have to do is figure out my whitespace issues when FullSecurity is
false.  (Everything is indented beautifully when the whole document is
copied, but when it's copying them node-by-node, there are no newlines in
there.)

Thanks Mike.
