If I understand your question, we've done
something like that for a content management
platform we've built at B-Bop Associates.

We defined a "Pipeable" interfac in Java,
then built a Transform class that implements
the interface, and uses James Clark's
XSLProcessorImpl to do the work.  We've
also developed "Tee", "Cat" and "Plumber"
classes that implement the interface.

We also found it useful to extend Printwriter
with a "TransWriter" class that takes a 
Pipeable and another Writer as constructor 
arguments, and does the transforms as you
call println(); This is handy for servlets
that want to specify a transform or series
of transforms to be executed on the data
being sent back to a requestor. 

The Pipeables all allow Writers or Streams
for the inputs and outputs.  The good news
is that this all works fine, and is quite
flexible and powerful.  The bad news is that
each transform runs in its own thread.

Enjoy,
Bill
