95754 is a dupe of 87894 and I have marked it as such.

47078 is primarily held up by the fact that line breaks don't work now in 
tooltips; once they do, authors can insert them using "&#10;&#13;" and we 
can implement the small change necessary (strict mode only-Hixie tells me 
that some braindead scripts pass large wads of text around in attributes 
somehow, and stripping linefeeds will break them).

Hmm. *Do* we have any bugs in XML whitespace handling? I'd assumed that 
expat handled it properly (after all, jclark wrote it), and left it at 
that...
