See DOXIA-59.

I think that cases where EOLs are significant should be tested 
separately as it's usually an exceptional case. It would be quite 
inconvenient if we had to specify correct EOLs for all the base test 
methods in AbstractSinkTest. But no principal objection, if someone 
wants to do it. For now, only the apt module uses the new test classes.

One thing that bothered me in the apt module is actually an issue with 
the parser, not the sink. It's the reason for point 1 at DOXIA-134: eg 
the two lines of apt markup

   line 1
   line 2

fire only one sink event when parsed: sink.text( "line 1 line 2" ), I 
think it should be two separate events, ie sink.text ( "line 1" ); 
sink.text( "line 2" ), so that EOL's are preserved. WDYT?

We have already such an implementation for xdoc: XmlWriterXdocSink. I 
think it was originally a copy of the XdocSink, just re-written to take 
an XMLWriter in the constructor, but it hasn't been updated and is not 
equivalent to XdocSink anymore.
