Keeping the characters represented by the entities is within the XSLT
1.0
specification.
Keeping the syntax used to represent the character entities in the file
used to create the XPath node tree is not within the XSLT 1.0
specification.
Thanks to Ken and Wendell for answering my question about 'keeping' the
character entity references in XSLT output.
Is the situation any different for 'internal or external general
entities',
or is it the same as for character entities?
