[xsl] Attribute order recommendations

2020-08-25 02:45:30
Folks,

Understanding XSLT as quick as possible is important. This blog post with the 
motto "Spare the maintainer" impressed me some years ago: 
https://blog.xml.rocks/xslt-naming-conventions/ 
<https://blog.xml.rocks/xslt-naming-conventions/>

But what about attribute order conventions?

I started putting the typing attribute as="…" at the end of e.g. xsl:variable, 
xsl:function or xsl:param.

But then I meet tunnel="yes", shall I put it before as="…" or at the very end, 
to make it more obvious to the casual observer?

Also, in a recent post by Graydon Saunders I notice as="…" as the very first 
attribute on every xsl:variable, even before name="…" which also makes sense to 
me somehow.

Have I missed some insightful source/post, or can we discuss the benefits of 
attribute order conventions?
