Then I would like to formally petition the working group to
specify that
the serialization of xsl:message should respect the xsl:output
declaration, just like the serialization of the result
document. How do
I go about that?
If you read the status section of the spec, it tells you how to raise
comments.
I don't think that using the same format as the principal output makes very
much sense - why should it be the same? However, I can see an argument for
providing some control. Some people only ever use xsl:message for simple
text messages, in which case escaping < and > doesn't make much sense; but
if you use it to output chunks of XML, like
<xsl:message>Value of $tree: <xsl:copy-of select="$tree"/></xsl:message>
then using the XML output method makes much more sense.
