How about these?
Lazy (won't do nothin' unless someone gives me some XML)
Ambitious (gonna go get my own XML!)
Snobby (too good to associate with other files)
:D
Or you could go with
External (XML source is defined outside the stylesheet)
Internal (XML source is defined inside the stylesheet)
Stand-alone (doesn't need an XML source)
I'm a little uncomfortable with Internal versus External, since I have
written my stylesheets that use the collection feature to get XML source
documents such that they take a path parameter. So there's still some
information coming from outside the stylesheet. Also, the terms are
generic enough to be confusing.
There's also
Uncollected
Collected
Stand-alone
Just some ideas.

Re: [xsl] What do you call a stylesheet that doesn't require an input XML?

There's a third kind - those that do not reference an XML document at
all.
There's quite a few of these in the test suite for FXSL.
