I'm not sure what you mean. Would you prefer "(according to a known
NAMESPACE with formatting semantics)"? Your short message would seem to
imply that one can only format an XML document if it has a CSS or XSL
stylesheet, which is, of course, not true. DTDs like HTML, SPDL and the
new "fo" namespace DO have formatting semantics.

The past is inaccurate. Whoever lives long enough knows how much what he
had seen with his own eyes becomes overgrown with rumor, legend a
magnifying or belittling hearsay. "It was not like that at all!" --
he would like to exclaim, but will not, for they would have seen only
his moving lips without hearing his voice. - Czeslaw Milosz (translated)
