I would not consider the 2 spaces after a period a
bug/typo. It might be a holdover from the print
standards/styles (eg. read any of the old "Manual of
Styles", like the Chicago one), but it is
inconsecuencial in XML.
Blank space has no special meaning in (X)HTML, or even
in XML, if you so desire you could write:
<foo
att1="some funky
attribute">And this is
the
content
I want to have in foo. And is valid XML
</foo>
So if this were a bug report I would have to label it
"Bogus".
Happy Holidays and health to all (/me is in bed w/ a
cold).
