Sounds like a good plan to me. Would you go after that?
Jeremias: I have similar concerns to Manuel about this. Moving the
handleWhitespace method to a different class is probably okay, but I
don't think we should start making any major changes to Whitespace
handling until we have the design nailed down. It is still unclear
exactly what the spec intends in some places. Manuel has written a Wiki
which attempts to document the intention of the spec and presents some
ideas on how to implement this functionality.

In this respect: I still wonder whether it wouldn't be more
convenient to split up the whitespace handling, and deal with the
inlines separately. Currently, InlineCharIterator needs to generate
boundary characters to indicate start- or end-inline. If we would
deal with the whitespace of the inlines at inline-level itself, it
should become far more straightforward to apply the 'special' rules
(no removal of the first/last space of the inline, or before it).
On top of that, it does away with the need to chain together all
FOText instances of a whole block (thus making that ugly static
'lastFOTextProcessed' obsolete?)
