My objective was to keep all attribute sets

I've used xslt a bit from time to time, but I've never used attribute 
sets, they are more or less just a simple restricted cut down form of 
named template with a different calling convention, and if they are
too simple for your use case the easiest thing usually is to forget
they exist. So typically use a named template or variable, but in
your case since you want a dynamic dispatch use apply-templates.

<xsl:template match="@remap[.='LINE']">
   <xsl:attribute name="margin" select="3"/>
   <xsl:attribute name="color" select="#aabbcc"/>
</xsl:template>
...

<xsl:template match="speaker">
     <fo:block">
       <xsl:apply-templates select="@*|node()/>
     </fo:block>
</xsl:template>

Thanks David, works well for this use-case.

Basically attribute selection for fo, where for html I'd
have been using CSS styling.
