[tei-council] xml:space

[Sebastian Rahtz]

for those what want to see the effect, consider this:

<text xmlns="http://www.tei-c.org/ns/1.0">
  <div>
    <ab>Ave Mar<lb/>ia Im<ex>p</ex><supplied>eratrix</supplied> Coeli</ab>
  </div>
  <div xml:space="preserve">
    <ab>Ave Mar<lb/>ia Im<ex>p</ex><supplied>eratrix</supplied> Coeli</ab>
  </div>
</text>

when processed by an XSLT identity transform using Saxon
you get

<text xmlns="http://www.tei-c.org/ns/1.0">
  <div>
      <ab>Ave Mar<lb/>ia Im<ex>p</ex>
         <supplied>eratrix</supplied> Coeli</ab>
  </div>
  <div xml:space="preserve">
    <ab>Ave Mar<lb/>ia Im<ex>p</ex><supplied>eratrix</supplied> Coeli</ab>
  </div>
</text>

notice the spurious newline introduced between </ex> and <supplied>
in stanza 1
