No you're not missing anything. For dynamic content, we could do this already by checking the user agent and deciding whether or not to transform on the server. Once your server classes do this by default with all returned XML output, you're covered. I think that XSL extension only fills the gap that we had for any static or prebuilt content that was being requested directly. For me, this isn't much of a gap.
