[jelly] [jsl] applyTemplates 'loses' the XMLOutput context
When using a stylesheet it is *very* handy to be able to put the result of
a stylesheet into a variable or file.
If a jsl:template has a core:file or core:set tag as the parent of the
applyTemplates, the output of the template processing is 'lost', i.e.
displayed on the screen, not sent to the file or variable.
I've updated the suite.jelly for jsl's tests to show the 'bug'.
Anyone out there who can suggest a workaround or fix?

Man, you fix these things faster than I can investigate them :)
Thanks again!

Thanks again for a great JellyUnit test case to demonstrate this bug.
This bug was due to the Stylesheet not maintaining the current XMLOutput
used when <applyTemplates> is invoked with a different XMLOutput to the one
when the <style> tag was invoked. The way <j:set> works is by invoking its
body into a new XMLOutput buffer which is why the variables weren't being
set correctly.
I've patched the code to fix this bug and added a few extra JellyUnit tests
for good measure to ensure this is truly licked.
