storing xsl in database?

 Hi - 
 Some of my colleagues are considering putting in all xsl stylesheet into
database rather than a flat file.
 They want to read in a correct stylesheet on the fly and feed it into
transformer engine as a string.
 I think it is a bad idea, but can not come up with a good reason.
 Any of you tried to put xsl stylesheets in the database? any reason we
should or should not do it?
 Thanks
