* {@link javax.xml.transform.Transformer#setOutputProperties}.
*
* <p>The properties returned should contain properties set by the stylesheet,
* and these properties are "defaulted" by default properties specified by
* <a href="http://www.w3.org/TR/xslt#output">section 16 of the
* XSL Transformations (XSLT) W3C Recommendation</a>. The properties that
* were specifically set by the stylesheet should be in the base
* Properties list, while the XSLT default properties that were not
* specifically set should be in the "default" Properties list. Thus,
* getOutputProperties().getProperty(String key) will obtain any
* property in that was set by the stylesheet, <em>or</em> the default
* properties, while
* getOutputProperties().get(String key) will only retrieve properties
* that were explicitly set in the stylesheet.</p>
*
* <p>For XSLT,
* <a href="http://www.w3.org/TR/xslt#attribute-value-templates">Attribute
* Value Templates</a> attribute values will
* be returned unexpanded (since there is no context at this point). The
* namespace prefixes inside Attribute Value Templates will be unexpanded,
* so that they remain valid XPath values.</p>
