Hi George,

I think the point is that:

    <xsl:template match="/">
            <foo/>
    </xsl:template>

and

    <xsl:template match="/">
        <xsl:result-document>
            <foo/>
        </xsl:result-document>
    </xsl:template>

...are equivalent - the output URI is the same in both cases - so the
exception shouldn't occur.

Fwiw, I do the same in Kernow (although it's been a while since I
wrote it and its all a bit hazy now) - when no output file is
specified (so all output goes to standard out) the base output uri is
the systemId of the stylesheet.... and in Kernow it seems fine.

I basically do:

controller.setBaseOutputURI(stylesheet.getSystemId());

....with the Result being a StreamResult(System.out).
