Comment on Should we remove XSLT from the web platform?

To have good XSLT library that follows standard ? But no we got html5 and now web components and shadow DOM slop that is not even accessible from javascript instead of proper XSLT because nobody wants to deal with it. XPath is broken since the beginning of this shit show.

It sounds like you’re complaining about not having consistent DOM state, not about the XSLT library. Whether the library is built in to the browser or an add-on is irrelevant to your problem.
