I'm looking for some kind of selective way (don't care what it is) for whitespace to be preserved in pom.xml configuration elements (only). The standards-compliant way to do it without even having to touch CDATA is to honor the (hard-coded) xml:space="preserve" attribute. Since Modello never outputs this attribute, or reads it, anywhere, it would seem like honoring this attribute when it is present would be the simplest way to fix this issue without affecting anything about backwards compatibility. Regarding my plugin, I have a workaround; thanks. Best, Laird -- http://about.me/lairdnelson
