yes that seems to be what it is

that poses some questions in terms of code generation though

let's say I'm receiving the input

<main>
    <div>
        <p>
            Hello world
        </p>
    </div>
</main>

The text that I'm getting from KSoup is correctly "\n Hello world\n ", so if I don't do any sanitization I'll generate

main(div(p("\n            Hello world\n        ")))

which is fairly ugly, but would not make people html look different than what they inputed to the generator

Based on
https://stackoverflow.com/questions/588356/why-does-the-browser-renders-a-newline-as-space

Browsers condense multiple whitespace characters (including newlines)
to a single space when rendering. The only exception is within <pre> elements
or those that have the CSS property white-space set to
pre or pre-wrap set. (Or in XHTML, the xml:space="preserve" attribute.)

I could write some logic and replace the multiple whitespace characters by a single space in some cases, which would produce

main(div(p(" Hello world ")))

which looks better, but is maybe more complex than we'd like

In my previous sanitization attempts, I would have generated

main(div(p("Hello world")))

and the results would look different depending on wether render() or renderFormatted() is used
