[jdom-interest] How to specify a basedir from the Transformer

Hi,

So there is no way to pass in a system property to set this up?

I guess the other solution would be to put all the files I need in the  
same directory but I would rather have the option to set the base dir  
of the external file that is referenced from the document() method.
