The URIResolver on the Transformer is used for resolving run-time URIs, such
as those in the document() function. For compile-time URIs, such as
xsl:include, you need to set a URIResolver on the TransformerFactory. By the
time you create your Transformer the stylesheet has already been compiled,
and all xsl:includes and xsl:imports have already been resolved.
