RE: [xslt] outputing html

["Robert Koberg" <rob koberg com>]

Another thing I am noticing is that top level params are being accepted
whether they are in the XSLT or not, for example:
-----------------------------------
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1"?>
<!DOCTYPE stylesheet []>

<xsl:stylesheet
   version="1.0"
   xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform";>

<xsl:output method="html" indent="no"/>

<xsl:param name="site_context"/>

<xsl:template match="/">
   <xsl:value-of select="$site_context"/>
</xsl:template>

</xsl:stylesheet>
------------------------------------
is the same as:
-----------------------------------
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1"?>
<!DOCTYPE stylesheet []>

<xsl:stylesheet
   version="1.0"
   xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform";>

<xsl:output method="html" indent="no"/>

<xsl:template match="/">
   <xsl:value-of select="$site_context"/>
</xsl:template>

</xsl:stylesheet>
------------------------------------

I can explain why this is important if you feel it is a low priority bug.

best,
-Rob
