The above conversions assume that SPACER is a container. James Clark
interpreted the release notes differently: SPACER an empty element
that adds space where it occurs. If this is the case, the conversion
between CSS and NSML is not as simple as above. (E.g., to achieve a
larger word spacing in a paragraph you would have to add a SPACER
element between all words) I'll do an update on the comparison when we
know more about how SPACER works.
