I was interested to find that inside the /admin directory, it doesn't
appear that even properly formatted XSL will work _unless_ one of the
exisiting files is replaced by a file of the same name. For instance,
copying listmounts.xsl to test.xsl and then trying to access test.xsl
will not work. It seems that one must use a file with one of the names
already existing. If there is a way around this, I would love to hear
about it.

Indeed, this is the case. Silly me. Thanks for catching that.
