Why should this matter (besides the bandwidth issue)? HTML ignores whitespace and other than looking at the output of a template every now and then to make sure that it is what you want, why do you care what the output looks like? I like the fact that it does exactly what you tell it to do. If you have whitespace it puts it in your loop. If you don't have whitespace it won't. Fairly intuitive to me. Anyone?
