I could do, but having gone to all the trouble of having separate
structures that encapsulate their own knowledge and configuration having
what is essentially a global list seems a bit of a kludge. Of course if
there is no other way then I'll have to end up doing that I guess.

Given how easy libxslt has been to use so far I'm finding it amazing
that this is so hard :-(
