What about using sax filtering and custom tag libs to accomplish your transformations? If you don't like XSLT (I can see how that is possible :) ) and you are comfortable with events, you can put together a really good transformation layer. Not sure if this is overkill, especially when you will probably need to write "state code" as you pass through events, but it is an alternative.
