Well, accuse me of nitpicking: No processor will honor a d-o-e
directive unless it serializes the result. AFAIK all of the processors
above will follow the d-o-e directive if they are serializing the result
itself ("Xalan in Cocoon" is not really a processor, it's more "a processor
embedded in a framework" or so). Whether a processor serializes the
transformation result depends on how the processor is used.

I'd really like to have the transformation and serializing pass
better separated in the XSL spec.
