A call from the backbench: I think it would be interesting to have such a serialization option! The esthetic aspect of XML can be important, depending on context. What we get without such an option looks like a heap of information.

<wg class="cl" rule="S-IO" cltype="VerbElided">
  <wg rule="NpaNp" role="s">
    <wg type="group" appositioncontainer="true" rule="Np-Appos">
      <w ref="PHM 1:1!1" after=" " class="noun" gbiType="proper" xml:id="n57001001001" lemma="Παῦλος" normalized="Παῦλος" strong="3972" number="singular" gender="masculine" case="nominative" gloss="Paul" domain="093001" ln="93.294a" morph="N-NSM" unicode="Παῦλος">Παῦλος</w>
    </wg>
  </wg>
</wg>

Hi Patrick,

There’s currently no serialization parameter to control the custom
indentation of attributes.

If I get you correctly, you’d like to get attributes indented if the
string length of the element name and the attributes exceed a specific
maximum length?

Best,
Christian
