Well, having dynamically generated sitemaps doesn't seem that good to me.
About Gianugo's problem: we had a discussion where it appears the sitemap is the by-product of some higher-level XML description, hence why he wanted to use "cocoon:".
Now using a pipeline as the sitemap source can have a tremendous cost if that pipeline isn't cacheable, and in Gianugo's case I suggested him to generate the sitemap on disk when the higher-level description changes, which doesn't happen so often.
Cocoon is sometimes too much powerful and people use too much "cocoon:" dynamic URLs when other systems would require to dump something on disk, and this can lead to overly complex and and very unefficient architectures.
So, although we may accept a new "context" attribute (I'm currently -0.9 for this), I'm -1 for accepting dynamically generated sitemaps.
Jochen, can you elaborate on your use case?
