My main point was of course to have only one code to do the indentation 
(I think there might be bugs in both versions today), but here is the 
output:

***** xml-mode
<outermost>
  <inner1><inner2>
      <inner3>Duh</inner3>
    </inner2>
  </inner1>
</outermost>

***** nxml-mode
<outermost>
  <inner1><inner2>
    <inner3>Duh</inner3>
  </inner2>
  </inner1>
</outermost>

BTW, I just noted that the person that sent me the bug report long ago 
put a "duh" in the text. ;-)
