Shouldn't docbook-xml/xsl set XML_CATALOG_FILES?

Hi,

within a few day I stumbled twice over this: When using docbook-xml or
docbook-xsl in a package description, one needs to set XML_CATALOG_FILES
to make xslproc (and others) find the catalogs.

Shouldn't XML_CATALOG_FILES be defined as native-search-paths?

IMHO users expect (at least I do :-) the .xml and .xsl files to be
available aber installation of these packages without further action
required.

BTW: For docbook-xsl the directory-name includes version, while for
docbook-xml it does not. Which one should be used?
