Yes, but I don't see how the selector can get access to the parameters
since:

 - Any <parameter/> tag that is a child of a <map:select/> tag in the
sitemap is ignored by the sitemap.xsl stylesheet.

 - The selector doesn't receieve the "map" object which contains the
parameters (only the objectModel and a selector pattern), thus the
parameters given in your example would never reach the selector. I don't see
how this can be solved either with a "factory" type selector or with a
non-factory type, without changing the interface to pass along the "map"
object.
