Stylesheets of course can strip this space, but DocBook stylesheets
doesn't do that because in XML all whitespace in mixed content is
significant. In SGML this was quite different as there were more fancy
options. But automatical striping of trailing and leading whitespace is
bad idea in general. For example if you do striping, you are unable to
start code example by blank line.

It is less readable but it is the only correct form. You can get used to
this format quite easily.
