Initial and terminal line breaks in element content

Dear WG,

I've come across an interesting but little known feature recently reading http://www.w3.org/TR/html401/appendix/notes.html#notes-line-breaks. If this is a rule for SGML, it should hold for XML as well, since XML is said to be a profile of SGML. But the XML specs (1.0 and 1.1) don't seem to mention it. Could you, please, clarify this confusion for me?
