I'm volunteering to put the feature for whitespace nodes
in the DOM tree. The only things that we need to decide are:

  1) the feature ID
  2) the default value

Should the feature reflect that we're "removing" whitespace
nodes from the DOM tree? or should it reflect that we're
"adding" whitespace nodes? Let's say, for argument, that
we select the latter. Then the feature ID could be something
like this: 

  http://apache.org/xml/features/dom/whitespace-nodes

Is this acceptable to everyone?

And given the fact that we have a nice set of serializers
now, I would be in favor of supporting the stance that the
parser does NOT add whitespace nodes, by default.

Assuming there's quick concensus, I'll make the changes.
