Ahh, right! I haven't thought about @class and @otherclass. Good idea!

I have only one question: what do you exactly mean by "during assembly"?

At the moment, I'm using the assemble.xsl stylesheet to assemble the
result document. It's nice and simple. :)

To make this little "attribute exchange dance", I could:

a. customize the assemble.xsl stylesheet, or
b. I add an additional <transform> line to express that
   little transformation in the assembly file.

Any recommendations or best practices?

Thanks for your explanation, much appreciated!
