  It applies the cascading, if the top stylesheet imports another one
etc ... the macro follows the cascading order until it finds the given
attribute with the higher priority. This merging w.r.t. importing
order is specified in the last paragraph of
   http://www.w3.org/TR/xslt#output

  E.g the top stylesheet may define the output encoding while one of the
embedded ones defines the output method.
