"The open-source implementation of XSLT 2.0, and XPath 2.0 and 3.0, and
XQuery 1.0 and 3.0. This provides the "basic" conformance level of these
languages; it also supports some optional features of the specifications
such as serialization and support for XQuery modules.
Not included in the Home Edition are: schema processing and schema aware
XSLT and XQuery; support for higher-order functions; numerous Saxon
extensions; calling out to Java methods; XQuery Update support; various
optimizations including join optimization; streamed processing; and byte
code generation."

It was proposed to consider switching to Saxon, since Xalan has
basically been dead since 2007. Saxon apears to include a
TransformerFactoryImpl (though I don't have any idea as to completeness
of compatibility).

Ideally we could just rely on the JDK, which uses a fork of xalan, but the
translet code which is compiled by it is not compatible with modular
classloading. So we just need that one patch. As of late the JDK fork is
more current, so we could potentially switch to a fork of it instead. Since
Java 9 is moving to modularity, I imagine they would fix the same issue, we
could also send them a patch.
