So, based on Sean's response and Bob's elaboration about elements
allowing PCDATA, let me ask about another case. Let's say I have a
paragraph with footnotes...
Should I have (1):
<para>This is text.<footnote><para>This is a
footnote.</para></footnote> This is more text.</para>
Or should I have (2):
<para>This is text.
<footnote>
<para>This is a footnote.</para>
</footnote>
This is more text.</para>
Or what if I have a footnote for the last sentence of a paragraph (3)?
<para>This is the first sentence. This is the last
sentence.<footnote><para>This is the footnote.</para></footnote></para>
Or this (4):
<para>This is the first sentence. This is the last sentence.
<footnote>
<para>This is the footnote.</para>
</footnote></para>
Or this (5):
<para>This is the first sentence. This is the last sentence.
<footnote>
<para>This is the footnote.</para>
</footnote>
</para>
If I read Sean and Bob right, (1) and (2) should be equivalent and
should produce a nicely formatted paragraph and footnote without
extraneous spaces? But (4) and (5) may introduce a trailing space?

This way is correct. Any other will induce spaces into the before and
after of
the element value.
