Space can be significant (i.e. can convey meaning) in XML and there is
no way to figure out what the space means just from the snippets you've
given. Depending on the application, the following XML could be
considered identical or completely different:
<foo>bar</foo>
or
<foo>
bar
</foo>
or
<foo>
bar
</foo>
If you want to adjust the indention of nxml-mode, look at
nxml-child-indent and nxml-attribute-indent. Unfortunately, I don't see
anything to adjust indenting of lines that just contain text.
If you want to look at adding this functionality, the best place to
start looks like it would be the function
nxml-compute-indent-from-previous-line.
