Andreas, Writing a plugin sounds like an interesting endeavor. I'll try that this weekend. This appears cleaner to me in the long run since it will just be another plugin execution.
Marco, Since I need a short-term fix for this week's release, I think I'll use your ant "xslt task" idea. What execute phase should I set for this to execute every time before the changes plugin is executed during the site generation?
