I'm sorry but there is nothing in RFC 2616 that
calls for a  'byte-for-byte' interpretation of PUT.

There's nothing about Mark's message calls for that interpretation.
Would stripping insignificant whitespace be a problem? Would
re-ordering namespace declarations? Re-ordering elements? Stripping
comments? Changing encodings? I think everyone would agree that those
things don't matter.

There's a grey area here. Take the dogma somewhere else.
