But XSLT is not strictly required for styling. In fact, Firefox also supports an out-of-band stylesheet inclusion via the `Link` HTTP header [1]:
Link: </style.css>; rel=stylesheet
(Yes, this works even without <?xml-stylesheet?> PI others have mentioned.)
I think the best strategy for Google is to support this and simultaneously ditch XSLT. This way nothing is truly lost.

- lifthrasiir 1y agoTechnically yes, but so what? The RSS use case is almost the only thing XSLT can uniquely provide (at the moment). Every other use case of XSLT can be done in other ways, including the use of server-side XSLT processors.
