Hey guys,

We've run into an interesting dilemma lately that I would like your 
input on.

If the body of an OSIS document contained excerpt like this:

<seg osisID="entry">
	This is an entry.  I was just going to make 2 points:
		o  this is point 1
		o  and this is point 2
</seg>


What would be acceptable handling / rendering?

Problems:
1) the initial indent.  Is it acceptable to remove tabs?
2) the return after the first line.  Is it acceptable to remove \n
3) the double space after the first sentence.  Can be remove?
4) the manual indentation and \n of point 1 and 2.  ?

(I DON'T WANT RECOMMENDATION ON HOW THIS _SHOULD_ BE MARKED UP)

I'm looking for input on how to handle whitespace.

	Thanks for your time.
