The latest stylesheet snapshot supports fop 0.91 to some degree, including
bookmarks.  Set the fop1.extensions parameter to "1" and fop.extensions to
"0" when using it.  Feedback on this early implementation is welcome.

Regarding fox:destination, most FO processors use id attributes in the FO
as PDF anchors.  For example, by default XEP adds an anchor for any id that
is referenced in the document, but has an option to output all id values
(useful when linking from other documents).
