I definitely want a rebol-based xsl-t processor at some point, but I
think that would only be useful in the context of a rebol framework for
easily building processors for different xml-based languages (dependant
of course on one's definition of 'easily')
The idea of having a rebol xhtml/html browser is of course good, because
then one could have the browser receive input from an xsl-t process.
When you talked about rebol being seen as somehow quaint without strong
xml facilities I can't help but agree, my development needs are most
strongly focused on controlling markup nowadays. Rebol may make the
protocol stuff simple, but this is no longer the most important part of
my day.
