So the idea is that one would launch an XSLT translator, with a XSLT
style sheet as input, on top of an xmlfs directory, and the result would
be a file representing the output of the XSLT processor?

BTW, I fear that the scope of your proposal is a bit excessive. The
summer tends to be over pretty quickly -- unless you are extremely fast,
I don't think it's likely you will get past making xmlfs and perhaps
unxmlfs fully functional...
