No this is absolutely not a bug.
What follows is well-formed XML (I've shifted the output 4 spaces to the
right to better show what has been generated):
==========
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1"?>
<!DOCTYPE article PUBLIC "-//OASIS//DTD Simplified DocBook XML

But, you'll probably like what will be generated by these settings:
* Indent: *yes*
* Indentation: 0
* Max. line length: 10000000

Thanks for the compliments. Note that XMLmind XML Editor is *not* a
DocBook editor.
We support DocBook because:
* It is a hard-to-support document type, and therefore this is a good
demo for us.
* We happen to use this document type for our own documentation.
To meet the same objectives, we could have used a document type other
than Docbook (e.g. TEI).
