I'm still not sure why you have to keep the rss elements in the DOM 
though. It seems like the feed reader is replacing parts of the DOM, and 
if you are, you might as well replace the entire DOM with a normal HTML 
or XHTML DOM.

That said, if you're trying to get this into the default build, you 
probably don't want to touch the DOM at all. Instead you should attach 
the display DOM using XBL. Either by complealy implementing feedview 
using XBL rather then XSLT, or by binding the result of the XSLT to the 
root element.

This was talked about quite a bit in bug 302121.
