Good afternoon!

When rescuing content from other formats, I often find it easiest to prepare a 
plain-text file, add DITA tags and then paste the content into the XML source 
view of a topic. Fairly often, what looks like clean XML source with no extra 
spaces appears in the DITA topic view with empty <text> elements. Going back to 
XML source view shows the lines have been wrapped, with a space inserted 
between the end of one element and the beginning of the next: for example,
lorem ipsum.</p> <p>Dolor sit amet
where the XML file in the external editor had
lorem ipsum.</p>
<p>Dolor sit amet

Is this an artefact of line-end settings? It would save quite a lot of time and 
inconvenience if pasted text rendered the way I've just seen it in the editor. 
fwiw, I usually work with Unix LF, LTF-8.

e-mail client will do with that label
