It should be noted, that a good box model should allow for nested
block boxes. However, this all is blue sky anyways ...

I mean "the document's character data" here. The important point is
that formats suitable for WP (RTF, HTML ...) separate character data
from formatting information entirely. In text/plain on the other hand
the formatting information (LF, SPC, TAB, FF, VT) /is/ part of the
character data.
