Given a stylesheet parameter <xsl:param name="somevar" required="yes"/>,
failing to supply a parameter value at run-time results in a boilerplate error
message such as "XTDE0050: No value supplied for required parameter somevar".
It would be helpful to be able to supply a custom error message such
as "required: somevar=[true|false|unknown]" to save the user the time it takes
to look through the code to figure out what parameter is expected. There's no
way to do this in the XSLT spec through 3.0, correct? and no common extensions
for doing it?
If not, would that be a useful feature for others, or are there reasons not to
implement something like that as an extension or enhancement?
