Implementations of document() can only use a URI that points to a file o'
bytes that need to be run through a parser, right? She'll have to
serialize the DOM for one of her XML docs to disk and then read it back
in, unless she wants to code a custom URI scheme and resolver for whatever
XSLT processor she is using, to access in-memory objects.
I'm not sure letting people use DOM objects rather than files as input to
XSLT processors was the best idea.
