Your response is dead wrong.  I must have some way of indicating
to the application where I want white space, or I do not have
sufficient control over the formatting of my documents.  How
the browser *handles* my request for white space is a 
presentational issue.  But white space in general is *not*
purely presentational.  This is all the more important because
of the limited range of markup possible in so generalized a
system as HTML.
