Known Issues
1. Collisions with other extensions inserting unwanted markup (i.e. <style/>).
2. Some XML are served up with an inappropriate Content-Type header or reference unreachable files in DOCTYPE or xml-stylesheet PI causing issues with rendering.
3. Issues with javascript's handling of non-prefixed namespaces (i.e. xmlns="www.shh.com.org") in documents or duplicated prefixed namespaces (i.e. the prefix is the same and the URIs differ) could cause valid XPaths to fail using XPath Results functionality.
4. Caching of HTTP URLs in XSL widget.
5. XSL widget does not handle stylesheets that do import or include due to limitations in the javascript xsl processor.
