Visual Studio 2010 source formatting HTML div tag

I've got my div tags set to insert line breaks "Before opening, within, and after closing" but I'm not getting the line break after the content.

I'm getting this:

<div>
   content</div>

But I want this:

<div>
   content
</div>

Again, I have the correct selection made in the options. It even shows the correct way in the preview box. If I change the selection to no line breaks, it formats correctly.

Is this an issue for anyone else?

Note, this is in aspx/c pages.

The reason it doesn't separate the closing div element is because adding a space there would potentially change the whitespace semantics of the rendering.
