Candle (or perhaps the whole toolset) doesn’t seem to
handle whitespace properties correctly. For example, I
believe Wise adds the WiseCRLF property to installations
it creates. This contains a carriage-return linefeed
string. When you try to candle one of these projects
decompiled with dark, you get the following error:

C:\test\myproject.wxs(57) : fatal error CNDL0024: The
element:
Property[WiseCRLF] requires attribute: Value

(Frustrating)

CDATA is now used to preserve whitespace. We'll need to
keep an eye out for other places where this attribute (in
tables.xml) is necessary.

A workaround for this is to manually insert
xml:space="preserve" as an attribute for that particular
property.
