Ideas / extensions #2

The following are just ideas, they are not yet supported, and need to be refined.

Possible functions similar to XSLT:

message Writes a message to the output (used to report errors)

output Defines the format of the output document

sort Sorts the output

text Writes literal text to the output

value-of Extracts the value of a selected node

We defintely need sort. And message could write to error output rather than standard output. Maybe even an abort command to throw a TransformException with a custom message.
