Actually, I've gone beyond that.  With Clark Evans and other concerned
parties, I've set up a petition against the xsl:script nonsense and
language bindings.  Please see

I think Python XML users in should be worried about the W3C's continual
efforts to enshrine particular languages as first-class XML-processing
environments.  It wouldn't be so bad if things such as xsl:script were
not so bloody unnecessary.
