Is there a recognized idiom for throwing an exception in XSLT that

to the invoker of the transformation?
It looks to me as if this can be achieved using the XPath error()
function, but I'm just wondering how folks would typically invoke that.
Using <xsl:value-of select="error()" /> seems like the most
unobtrusive, but I wonder if there is some built-in XSLTism for this.
Review <xsl:message terminate="yes"> for what you need.
I hope this helps.
