Re: [xsl] rephrased: passing parameters to generic templates

So when text nodes or values of attribute nodes 
are constructed (in 2.0), the string-conversion 
rules are not followed, but instead all values 
are spliced together (with space delimiters, it 
appears). This is something to watch out for, 
being notably different from 1.0 and potentially 
the source of silent bugs when migrating.

Although this behaviour of AVT is different in 2.0 what is the same as
1.0 is that {} is essentially a syntactic trick to allow you to use
<xsl:value-of in the value of an XML atribute. In 2.0 mode xsl:value-of
similarly now gives you the value of all items not just silently
discarding all but the first.
