Inspired by a blog post I read recently [1] I wanted to see how feasible
it would be to add an RSS stylesheet to the feeds that Django's
syndication framework generates.
In XML, that means adding a "processing instruction" (`<?xml-stylesheet
href="/rss.xsl" type="text/xsl"?>`) right after the start of the document
(`<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>`) but before the root node. It
turns out the syndication framework doesn't have the right hooks to make
this easy.
I would like to suggest adding support for a new optional argument that
would let users specify a path to a stylesheet URL. Or if that's
considered too specific/niche of a feature, then at least add a hook to
let users add the behavior without rewriting methods (for example by
moving `handler.startDocument()` out of `RssFeed.write()` and into a new
method).
