Hmm, yes. We need an example here. Any suggestions?

Looking at this footnote again, it seems completely potty to talk about 
space within the  *start-tag* rather than within the element. But the 
problem is clear enough -- there is a need to retain spaces between 
words, but not introduce them between syllables and the way this example 
is laid out doesnt quite achieve the intended effect. I'll try to reword 
the note more sensibly.
