This is not implemented, and I don't see us doing it, really.

Note that doing a new transform for printing would nuke all form entries 
in a page, for example, which would be a very unexpected behaviour.

I'd suggest that you do one transform, and then work with CSS.

There is no support for alternative stylesheets on XSLT either. Not sure 
what the specs would say on that.
