- Add optional xml:space="preserved" attribute to verbatim elements.
That should be xml:space="preserve", not "preserved".
I'm not sure what you mean by "optional". I assume you mean that in the
DTD this would be declared as #IMPLIED? If so, I would suggest that this
be required for verbatim elements, with a default value of "preserve".
This would assist any generic processing tools that don't have specific
knowledge of DocBook, especially formatting tools.
