Thanks for a tip. Good decision to allow format properties as XPath
expression!

So I set oxf.epilogue.xforms.preprocessing = true and
oxf.epilogue.xforms.preprocessing.uri to XSL stylesheet? And I can use
oxf: protocol to retrieve the stylesheet via resource manager? Can I
also use directory as URL, so all XSL stylesheets in that directory are
applied? Probably not.
Anyway, good to know, we implemented the same thing ourselves outside of
Orbeon. But we use several stylesheets and chain them together via
priorities.

Thanks, that simplifies our architecture a lot.
