[XML4Lib] straight xml dump

How can I get a straight XML dump from my Google Appliance? Use some  
incantation of xsl:copy or xsl:copy-of?

We have a Google Appliance here at Notre Dame. It slices. It dices. It  
makes French toast. It works just fine.

To get output the Appliance searches its local index, creates some  
flavor of XML, transforms the XML with a stylesheet under my control,  
and ultimately returns (poorly formed) HTML. But the default  
stylesheet that comes with the Appliance is overly complicated. You  
might say it is Baroque.

Is there a way I can write a very short XSLT file that simply takes  
the Appliance's XML input and copies it to output. Once I get this raw  
dump of the Appliance's XML I can see the structure of the file and  
possibility create a more streamlined XSLT file for display.
