Well, if we're going to make libxslt an explicit thing, then it'd be
trivial to add an xslt transformation function into the core, and then
I think we can claim equivalent support. But we'll have to check the
details, of course.
I have been thinking, however, that I don't want to add more and more
library dependencies into the server. libxml2 was necessary to some
extent. But xslt functionality could easily be provided as a module.
This would be easy to do and might be useful even for 8.3. But I don't
really know how to label that. Having a contrib/xslt alongside
contrib/xml2 would probably be confusing. Ideas?
