This is a limitation of XEP. We don't support
white-space-treatment="ignore-if-surrounding-linefeed",
needed to prevent the observed effect. Its support is planned
in subsequent versions, but I cannot give you any estimate
about schedules.

Perhaps they implement the correct value of white-space-treatment.

Yes.

Not yet, sorry. The only thing that comes to mind is to count characters
and insert explicit line breaks on the XSLT level; but it's hard to implement
and has a very limited applicability; I mention it but dare not recommend it.
