> OASIS OpenFormula specification allows using SPACE, TAB, LINE FEED and
> CARRIAGE RETURN as space characters. ... (see

> html#__RefHeading__1017970_715980110).

It would be worth clarifying whether ODF v1.2, Part 2, §15.4 is an oversight
from the revision between these versions: 

- ODF v1.1, Part 1, §1.6 White-Space Processing and EOL Handling 
- ODF v1.2, Part 1, §3.18 White Space Processing and EOL Handling

ODF v1.1, Part 1, §1.6 explicitly mentioned the same four characters. This was
determined to be inconsistent with that described in the referenced XML v1.0
4th Ed. / 2006 specification and was subsequently amended to remove all
reference to the four characters. The OASIS metabug is:

https://issues.oasis-open.org/browse/OFFICE-1521

... with issues 1211 and 1539 offering the most detail on what was decided.

The situation with ODF v1.2, Part 2 (OpenFormula) may need to undergo a similar
revision (it also references the same XML spec), however this needs to be
raised with OASIS (and probably should be for clarity in this case anyway). I
am setting the status to NEEDINFO until someone from OASIS can assist with this
matter.
