I think there are many use-cases where we can use either XSLT or Java
to solve those problems. I tend to use Java drivers (using JAXP, SAX
filters etc) to control XSLT transforms.

XSLT 2.0 is now able to do many of the tasks for which Java (or
perhaps another extension technology) was necessary earlier (for e.g
we now have a vast F&O library in XSLT 2.0, and information
aggregation from XML and flat text files is easier now with XSLT 2.0).
