That's something I discussed with Hans a few weeks ago: in the case you mention, you would have two different definitions of the entity &addhyphen; One in the DOCTYPE, which will be followed by the xslt processor: <!ENTITY addhyphen ""> (i.e. do nothing about it) and one in the ConTeXt environment file: \xmlsetentity{addhyphen}{\-} which will add the discretionary hyphen. And that's exactly what you wanted: typographical niceties for pdf output which will not disturb viewing the file on the web. > > When reading Taco's reply to that thread ... > > .......... > ...

The main difference between the two is [Hans, is this right? correct me if I'm wrong]: mkii basically uses a streaming model, i.e., it translates one part of the xml file after the other. Reusing nodes and elements that have already been processed is possible, but difficult. mkiv loads the entire xml tree into memory; you can access any element at any time.
