xml output is still not formatted in r8 (admin, Export)
This would be extremely handy and appreciated.

Well, the reason for this is that one can easily use a third party utility (I 
use
Firefox especially) for purposes of viewing XML, despite its original 
formatting.
Stripping out whitespaces makes the output smaller (which can really add up for 
large
XML documents, depending on if you're using tabs or spaces) and AFAIK doesn't 
create
any issues for WPKG.

Unless a strong case can be made to support the use of formatted vs. 
unformatted XML
output, I don't see this being added any time soon.

Its handy for debugging xml errors when wpkgexpress fails to import an xml file.
Else you get a line 1 error everytime :)

It is a minor issue, I can format the xml manually then import it, but the 
extra 
step when testing just adds to the tedium.

There'll be an togglable option to output formatted XML, in the next revision.
