No, I'm guessing you have a match="*" or match="node()" in 
framework.xsl, or some match pattern that is catching the nodes you 
were expecting to catch in application-tabs.xsl.  In the first list 
of imports the matches in framework.xsl have the lowest 
importance.  In the second list of imports the matches in 
framework.xsl have a higher importance than all of the matches in 
application-tabs.xsl.

Recall that importance trumps priority.  And latter imports have 
higher importance than earlier imports.  If your earlier imports have 
higher priority matches, these will still be ignored due to the 
higher importance of matches declared in latter imports.

I hope this helps.
