Description

I'm converting an input XML file into an output XML file using 'java
org.apache.xalan.xslt.Process". Some of the input XML elements are output as
is, some are modified, and some new ones are introduced via the XSL style sheet
using xml:element. All elements which are pased through as is or are modified
appear to be indented as expected. However, elements created via xsl:element do
not appear to be indented correctly: the opening tag appears to always be
indented, but all subelements created after that and the closing tag are not
indented at all.

This is not inducing any errors downstream; it only makes the file more
difficult for people to read.
