> It is incredibly painful to take the XML output, pretty print it to make it readable, and find out that this has mangled the significant whitespace inside element values. 
> In general, since whitespace within simple values is considered fungible in XML, we have to protect whitespace that is truly part of the DFDL infoset. 
> I think CDATA bracketing is preferable to replacing whitespace characters with XML escaping like &amp;#x20;
