Description

<xml:file> elements has the following two majors bugs:
-> namespace declarations, at least at the end of an element declaration, have an opening quote but no closing one !
-> when choosing the prettyPrint = "yes"... the words get cut in the middle!

The work-around for the first is currently to run:
sed 's/xmlns([^=])="([^>])>/xmlns\1="\2">/g' < bad > ok

Is it a dom4j bug ?? Not sure !

PS: don't trust my time estimate... I have not gone inside dom4j to know it.
