| The problem with using .dsl as the map from the URL .extension is that

Although we're in the habit of thinking this way, there is in fact no
one-to-one correspondence between stylesheets and DTDs. It is
possible to write a catch-all stylesheet that will work with documents
written to a number of DTDs, and conversely it's not only possible but
often desirable to create a number of stylesheets that are all
designed to work with documents written to a single DTD.
And then there's the fact that DTDs are optional in XML...
