Great catch, thank you. Updated and checked in at
https://sourceforge.net/p/x3d/code/HEAD/tree/www.web3d.org/x3d/stylesheets/X3dTidy.xslt
with a few documentation improvements plus acknowledgments added.
http://www.web3d.org/x3d/stylesheets/X3dTidy.html
Hope this might become an useful preprocessor for your testing. I have not applied it to all the scenes in the X3D Examples Archive, so be careful out there!
