The output is valid...

No...<function value="AA"/> is valid and equivalent to <function
value="AA"></function>
The first is simply short-hand for the second. We use Xerces Serializers
for handing the output of the XML...and they use the "empty-element
short-hand" approach.
THe only way to get it to output the end-tag and not use the short-hand
is by having content, either elements or text inside the element.
