Xalan implements TrAX, which is the JAXP API set for stylesheet
transformation, so this isn't an either-or question; it's roughly
equivalent to asking whether you should use SAX or Xerces.

I believe Xalan still has some features which can't (yet?) be accessed
through TrAX and require talking to Xalan directly. These may or may not be
important to you for your application.
