Add a comment before the <rss> or <feed> root tag that is at least 512 
bytes long and your XSL stylesheet will get applied in lieu of the 
default Firefox stylesheet.  But make sure your stylesheet is really 
what your users want, since overriding the default sheet means users 
will see something different from what they usually see for feeds and 
won't be able to subscribe to it in the same way they can subscribe 
using the Firefox-provided UI.
