[jdom-interest] possible bug in removeContent()

[Richard Cook]

I think I was getting mixed up having just read the Canonical xml document
("All consecutive characters are placed into a single text node") alongside
the xml spec, and looking at the behaviour of addContent(). it would be hard
to enforce generally too!

Where is this per the XML spec?

I see this as correct behavior, even more so when we have a Text node, which
is coming soon. Now if we had some sort of normalize() behavior, like DOM,
then maybe put them together, but I don't think it should happen
automatically.
