While it's been on my TODO list for a while, I finally realized how easy it was and finally did it. Using libxslt (which we already link to) Inkscape can now use XSLT stylesheets for input and output. (I thought about effects, is that useful to anyone?)
I've also included into the build a couple of SVG stylesheets I was interested in:
* AI SVG: cleans up Adobe SVG to only have in it the "good stuff"
* XAML: Toine de Greef posted on his blog[1] a set of XSLT sheets to convert to and from SVG and XAML. What's really exciting to me about this is that they might be usable to finally bring SVG to IE using Silverlight[2] (at least what XAML supports). But, I think this makes Inkscape the first XAML editor outside of Expression.
More are out there. I know that Adobe had a ChemML to SVG stylesheet somewhere, but I've been unable to find it...
