Microsoft surveys on XSLT 2.0 support

Microsoft's XML Team is asking you:

XSLT 2.0 -
1. Do we need to support XSLT 2.0 ?
2. What are the most useful features of XSLT 2.0 that you would like to see implemented? (like grouping , support for datetime etc)
3. Do you believe support for the entire 2.0 spec is useful? If yes , why?
Don't miss a chance to speak up. Go post a comment.

1. Yes, support the XSLT 2.0 spec.

2. All of it will be useful: especially the ability to treat result tree fragments as node set variables.

3. OF COURSE you should support *ALL* of the spec ... why do software makers (not just Microsoft) think that PARTIALLY supporting a spec is good for anyone? That kind of thinking produced the browser incompatibility nightmares that we have to contend with today.
