RE: insert a tab/space characters

Just use numeric character references: 	 for tab,   for space,
&#xa0; for non-breaking space. Preferably wrapped in an <xsl:text>
element, to avoid unwanted whitespace stripping. The serializer will
make its own decisions how to represent these characters in the HTML
output, but it will do it in a way that the browser understands.
