Answer 1

No conformant XML processor will care about the difference between your two cases, and neither should you. It's like ordering of attributes. The difference is insignificant at the XML level. You'd have to drop to the text level beneath XML to detect or control such a difference, but at the XML level you're better off ignoring it because it does not matter.
