Ok, I tried it and it has an effect only when the output is something like
this :
<table
border="1"><tr><td> hi </td></tr></table>
OR
<table border="1"><tr><td style="white-space:
pre-wrap"> hi
</td></tr></table>
And not when it's like :
<table border="1"><tr><td> hi
</td></tr></table>
So it makes sense to respect white spaces (+1). But whether to use or
styles is a question. styles seems to be a cleaner way as suggested by
sergiu.
Thanks.

One consideration. Right now you have to write the following:
|cell1|cell2|cell3
this is not very readable IMO compared to:
| cell1 | cell2 | cell3
However right now since whitspaces are honored if you write the
latter
you'll get:
<td> cell1 </td> in XHTML.
Is there any possibility to trim spaces only around the table
delimiters
and
honor only the spaces inside the text in the tables?

WDYT ?
Thanks.
