Thanks for the suggestion, Dale. I think this is a very good idea, and
I will try to make the changes to support local variables overriding the
global settings.
Maybe we can have a separate variable called
org-export-docbook-stylesheet to make it easier to set in each file and
flexible to use (in org-export-docbook-xslt-proc-command, etc.). What
do you think?

I thought about doing something similar to make the commands easier to
set, but stopped pursuing that after seeing the format string style
worked fine. I am not sure if any other Emacs modes/packages have done
something like this, i.e. using (semi)named arguments.

Thanks for the suggestion, Carsten! It's a little hard for me to decide
which way is better to specify the stylesheet: "#+XSLT" or "Local
Variables:". Maybe "#+XSLT" is better? I don't see many local
variables being used in Org mode... Please advise.

I'll do some research on this. :-)
Thanks,
Baoqiu
