That's XML. If a server rewrites XML, the whitespace must still be there.As for XHTML, whitespace significance really depends on how XHTML is supposed to work. Yes, the whitespace is there, since XHTML is XML, but what is the meaning of the whitespace to an XHTML renderer? I don't believe this is ours to decide.If XHTML is just like HTML, where any length of whitespace simplifies down to one character for presentation, then we should probably respect this in XHTML-IM.
