Feel free to comment on > it within the bugzilla thread. This proposal is extremely important. Its incorporation into XSLT 2.1 would provide the capability to have separately compiled libraries (as opposed to a main stylesheet == "separate application") of functions. I have a remark about making sure a specific mode in the module cannot accidentally be selected (this is not the same as overriden !) by an external template with mode="#all" The existing text ( (d) in the Description, and (f) in the second post by Dr. Kay) does not rule out such a possibility. In particular, there is a need that a mode with a name defined in the module be accessible, but only *by name*, to exteranal <xsl:apply-templates> instructions. At the same time, any external <xsl:template> that has mode ="#all" should not be available for selection in a mode defined in the specific module.
