The reason the processor uses only newlines is for better performance. At least that's what I remember as the reason.
Of course, a conformant processor can ignore the indent attribute of
xsl:output, so any particular behavior is platform-specific.

Just curious, why are newlines better than traditional indenting?
Especially
when it confuses so many people? As a user, I hope that the default will
be
changed to 4 (or 2).
Anyway, thanks for explaining this. I've been confused by this for a long
time, and I always just assumed it was a bug in the indentor.
