So, for adding dynamic behavior to web pages the web developer community is being invited to use a proprietary, non-free, plug-in instead of a standard, free, native, massively well supported JavaScript?

That doesn't seem reasonable.

I haven't tested this code, but something like the following template
should toggle the visibility of the 'country' input element in a form
when
the 'switch' button is clicked by changing the input element's
'display' style property

<xsl:template match="button[@id eq 'switch'] mode="ixsl:onclick">
   <xsl:for-each select="../input[@id eq 'country']'" as="element()"/>
   <xsl:variable name="style" select="if (@style:display eq 'block')
                                                          then
'hidden' else 'block'  "/>
       <ixsl:set-attribute name="style:display" select="$style"/>
    </xsl:for-each>
</xsl:template>

There are 3 extensions at play here:

1. the ixsl:onclick mode is for any DOM element 'onclick' event in
this case - any template mode names in the ixsl namespace are for DOM
or JavaScript object events
2. The style prefix (for namespace:
http://saxonica.com/ns/html-style-property) allows CSS properties of
elements to be referenced as psuedo attributes.
3 ixsl:set-attribute sets the attribute (pseudo attribute in this
case) of the element that is the context item (set by xsl:for-each
here)
