[jdom-interest] Newlines between attributes

[Paul Libbrecht]

Two hints:
- don't hope to get an information about these whitespaces in the source 
from a parser... no standard covers such information set so that having 
this information would mean to bind to a given parser... I don't think 
JDOM will do this soon
- In order for the lines to be cut within an element output because the 
element tag becomes to long, you'd need to change the XML-outputter...

Hope that helps.
