What a good idea (or hack, if this is what you meant) - I've never
considered it, I don't know why...

<div>
  <dummy/>
</div>

Will stop the element being minimised, won't leave spaces all over your
output and won't incur any processing expense.

Although, I still think we should have the option when output="xml" to
choose how empty elements are handled, this will do until output="xhtml"
comes along.
