Issue Type: Improvement (was: Bug)
Whitespace handling is an ancient debate, left unsettled in the past due to
inability to agree on anything, left unsettled in the present by lack of anyone
stepping up to implement a solution. Nobody seems to care enough to
prioritize it anymore. You can join the ranks of the
opinionated-but-insufficiently-motived people by "voting" here:

> When using a velocity template for XML output. I encounter tabbing issues
> when using an IF statement. Below you can find an example of what is
> happening:
> Template which produces erroneous tabbing:
> #foreach($order in $orderList)
> <type>
> #if("$order.type" == "AZ")
> <AZ>
> <fiveYears>$order.typeVar1</fiveYears>
>
> <thirtyNineMonths>$order.typeVar2</thirtyNineMonths>
> </AZ>
> #end
> </type>
> #end
> Output of erroneous tabbing:
> <type>
> <AZ>
> <fiveYears>true</fiveYears>
> <thirtyNineMonths>false</thirtyNineMonths>
> </AZ>
> </type>
> If I remove the indentation from the #if and #end then the output is normal.
> Having to remove the indentation is undesirable as it makes the template
> difficult to read.
> Template with removed indentation for #if and #end:
> #foreach($order in $orderList)
> <type>
> #if("$order.type" == "AZ")
> <AZ>
> <fiveYears>$order.typeVar1</fiveYears>
>
> <thirtyNineMonths>$order.typeVar2</thirtyNineMonths>
> </AZ>
> #end
> </type>
> #end
> Output with indentation for #if and #end removed;
> <type>
> <AZ>
> <fiveYears>true</fiveYears>
> <thirtyNineMonths>false</thirtyNineMonths>
> </AZ>
> </type>
