This is possible for a long time (at least as of PHP 5.3) by using
the almost undocumented 2nd parameter of ::transformToDoc() which
expects the name of the class to return. In your case:
echo $processor->transformToDoc( $sourceDOM, DOMDocumentYouCanFancyPrint::class );

Description:
------------
It would be very helpful to allow transformToDoc to return a custom class instance, which would have
to extend DOMDocument of course.
The example code provided is simplified. Far better usage could be made from the child DOMDocument
class -- this is only an example to illustrate the potential.
Test script:
---------------
class DOMDocumentYouCanFancyPrint extends DOMDocument {
public function __toString() {
return "<pre>" . htmlentities( $this->saveXML() ) .
"</pre>";
}
}
...
$processor->registerDocumentClass( "DOMDocumentYouCanFancyPrint" );
echo $processor->transformToDoc( $sourceDOM );
Expected result:
----------------
The expected result would be that the transformToDoc method call returns an instance of
DOMDocumentYouCanFancyPrint.
