I suppose the point is that XXE does not even have a notion of "physical
contents". It doesn't deal with the underlying byte stream, only with
the XML *info set*.
True.
The rest is hidden within some XML I/O library that
doesn't preserve the state that you are interested in as non-semantic
content.

The "XML indentation" options, turned on by default, confirm that XXE
will not preserve the "physical contents" of an XML file.
What you are asking is to augment XXE to carry the latter
around, too. Right ?
This feature is very unlikely to be implemented in the future.
