Then you agree that the appearance of line separator (U+2028) or of
paragraph separator (U+2029) is not an error, no matter how odd or
discouraged.  Anyway, it's only in XML that these characters are
deprecated.  Other document frameworks may encourage or require them.
So the question remains: what is an implementation to do with line
separator (U+2028) and with paragraph separator (U+2029) when
encountering them in content?
