Current behavior

now ng-xi18n will generate xliff including spaces, for example there is an element

    <p i18n>
        复制
    </p>

it will generate

        <source>
                    复制
                </source>

it’s really weak to rely on spaces since they could changed Unintentionally or even by IDE reformat code.

Expected behavior

ignore leading and tailing spaces

Hi everyone. This has not been on my radar but it sounds like it might be a good idea to implement it. I think we could put it behind some kind of flag to prevent a breaking change. In the not-too-distant future we also need to migrate away from our legacy message ids, so this could also be part of that work. Since this is not a trivial piece of work, I am not sure right now when it will be implemented. Sorry not to give you any better indication, right now.
