XmlWriter should allow setting not to output space before closing slash for empty elements

[jez9999]

I have an XML document I want serialized by an XmlWriter, and I'm using this code:

        XmlWriter xw = XmlWriter.Create(sbXmlDoc, new XmlWriterSettings {
            Indent = true,
            IndentChars = "  ",
            OmitXmlDeclaration = true
        });

Unfortunately, this outputs spaces before closing slashes in empty elements (<element /> instead of <element/>) and I don't want the spaces there. XmlWriter (actually I'm getting a XmlWellFormedWriter) should provide an option not to output these spaces, or better yet, a custom callback for doing any extra formatting you want when each element is closed.
