I'm seeing this using WO 5.3 on Leopard. I haven't tried it yet deployed on Tiger/5.3.

Using the NSXmlOutputStream class as described in Practical Webobjects and passing in a key value, e.g.

    xml_stream.writeObject(first(), "first")

I'm getting output with a structure that doesn't match what is shown in the book. For example, here is a snippet of my output:

       <string id="7" xml:space="preserve">jeff</string>
       <string idRef="7" key="first"/>

Note the extra level of indirection where the key value is in its own element that has a reference to another element that contains the associated key data.

According to the book, and Apple's own documentation, I would have expected something more like:

       <string id="7" key="first" xml:space="preserve">jeff</string>

I'm thinking the format I'm getting is going to make any XSL I write a little more complicated, and it also worries me that in the future this format could change, breaking all my xsl's. Any idea why this might be?

My first, and only, guess is a difference in versions between the libraries used waaay back when that was written and what you have installed on your machine. Which WO version? Hopefully there is some way to control how this gets generated. XSL is annoying enough for the easy version.
