No, but XSLT processors still throw it in if needed or not.

But this has never been about what I can cook up manually; it is about
what XSLT processors spit out. I know libXSLT has a special
output="xhtml" option (but I don't know if this fixes this specific
problem; I'll give it a try tomorrow), but most processors deals with
"html|xml|text" and I would like to have this within those parameters.

Anyways, I think the answer is 'no' to if this can be solved
absolutely without hacking or relying on specific processor behaviour.
