I would assume you are correct on the notation being a shortcut for
elementStart("line"); elementEnd(); in the same way a <br/> tag in XHTML is
used. When processed by a standard XML parser like Xerces, "<line></line>"
and "<line/>" are considered identical, and will produce the same DOM
Element model.
