Also, https://github.com/whatwg/html/issues/11523 (Should we remove XSLT from the web platform?) is not a request for community feedback.

It's an issue open on the HTML spec for the HTML spec maintainers to consider. It was opened by a Chrome engineer after at least two meetings where a Mozilla engineer raised the topic, and where there was apparently vendor support for it.

This is happening after some serious exploits were found: https://www.offensivecon.org/speakers/2025/ivan-fratric.html

And the maintainer of libxslt has stepped down: https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/libxml2/-/issues/913
