In XSLT, there's no portable way to enforce that kind of output.

Do you mean that disable-output-escaping="yes" does not work for attribute values ?

I think it is clear in Section 16.4 of XSLT when it says "It is an error for output escaping to be disabled for a text node that is used for something other than a text node in the result tree. Thus, it is an error to disable output escaping for an xsl:value-of or xsl:text element that is used to generate the string-value of a comment, processing instruction or attribute node".

I don't think there is any room for doubt in that wording.
