     The method org.w3c.dom.Document.normalizeDocument() does not provide
the [element content whitespace] attribute for text nodes containing white space
characters within element content.

The javadoc of the method org.w3c.dom.Text.isElementContentWhitespace() reads:
"
The text node is determined to contain whitespace in element content during the load
of the document or if validation occurs while using Document.normalizeDocument().
"

So the RI is expected to return true for characters '\t\n\r ' after the document
is normalized with validation turned on (see the test.java below).

This bug affects new test in JCK 1.5

  api/org_w3c/dom/DOMConfiguration/index.html#Params[ECWhitespace001]

The test is currently in the kfl with the RI bug:

4963562 DOMConfiguration: some required Document configuration properties are not supported

The bug is found in jdk1.5.0/beta/b47.

To reproduce the bug compile and run test.java as shown in the log below:

        Element root = doc.getDocumentElement();

        Node firstChild = root.getFirstChild();
        Text text = doc.createTextNode("\t\n\r ");
        root.replaceChild(text, firstChild);

        config.setParameter("element-content-whitespace", Boolean.TRUE);
        config.setParameter("validate", Boolean.TRUE);

        doc.normalizeDocument();

        if (firstChild == null
