While we're looking at how we might benefit from other people's
brain-spewage (to use Tom's term), I encourage everyone to take a look at
XEditor, by Jonathan Borden (cited in a recent xml-dev email below).
Here's my best summary of how XEditor compares/contrasts to what we've been
exploring here:
XEditor hides complexity in the XSLT implementation via a preprocessing
step, a la Schematron. TransQuery update, as we've been exploring it, hides
complexity in the XSLT implementation using xsl:import.

A somewhat long time ago (i.e. circa 2000) I wrote a little XML editor which
compiled itself into XSLT http://www.openhealth.org/editor/. Work on this
was merged into the XUpdate progect of xml:db
http://www.xmldb.org/xupdate/xupdate-wd.html. I think that the XSLT _syntax_
is perfectly capable of _expressing_ updates, and any issues are left to
implementations.
