The XMLOutputter seems to be adding extra, unneccessary, white space after
the last attr/value pair in an Element, source is attached...

	XMLOutputter outputer = new XMLOutputter();
	
	String outputXml = outputer.outputString(root);

	System.out.println(" IN: " + inputXml);
	System.out.println("OUT: " + outputXml);
	
    }
