Assuming that the collation used for sorting strings takes leading spaces
into account - it doesn't have to.
ah yes, forgot about that. Of course you could say more or less the same
about any effect of xsl:sort: it's somewhat under specified in xslt 1:-)
Even the one thing that is specified (that lexicographic sorting be
used) isn't widely supported (as a previous thread on this list showed
that the term "lexicographic sorting" wasn't universally accepted as
having a defined meaning).
