Maybe I missed something, but this "little processing" would mean that
for each @class attribute you would need to:
1. Find all "DITA namespace declarations" (dita_ns:* attributes) which
are in scope
2. Based on this replace prefixes in @class attribute by corresponding
namespace URI
3. Do a match on replaced @class with namespace URI + original element
name after :
This is actually quite complex thing to do. In XSLT 2.0 you can create
user defined function to do this and use it for template matching. But I
can't imagine how to do this in XSLT 1.0.
