This only applies after:

Is this fixed now?

AFAIK, XSLTException doesn't really exist in Mozilla either (they have an IDL, but apparently never use it). In a broader sense, WebKit XSLT error reporting is even more limited than what we have for other kinds of mistakes.

Looks like Gecko still raises exceptions, and while Blink doesn't, there is a relatively fresh TODO about it.

In a brief Firefox testing, I got an Exception, not an XSLTException, FWIW.
