Not really a comment on xslt but as I understand it the hgroup
element has been removed from the HTML 5.0 CR specification.

        ACK, thanks for the pointer.  I guess that I didn’t check the
        latest CR in this regard, even though the previous one noted
        that the element’s “at risk.”

Shame really, because it has real semantic use.

        Indeed.  I still hope that the outline algorithm itself won’t
        repeat it’s fate.

        That being said, it’s my understanding that HTML5 processors are
        required to be lenient towards “unknown” elements, which means
        that even being undesirable, such an element shouldn’t cause
        problems in practice.  (Except with validation, that is.)
