There is nothing wrong with that,
in fact I am aware of a typesetting system which uses XML as input,
and if you enclose your input text between certain tags (<pre> or
<sourcecode>)
you expect that the blanks between those tags are preserved.
The W3C standards, IMO, don't tell anything about what a certain parser
etc. should do to XML content (IMO, not much), there are not many
restrictions
(<, of course, should be <) ... attributes are different, of course.
Kind regards
Bernd
