The submittor changed the request from db:address to db:affiliation.
Adding any punctuation requires adding TEXT to the mix for
the element.  The Committee felt that adding TEXT solely for
punctuation was not appropriate, and that any punctuation
would best be generated by a stylesheet operating on the
well-defined children in the affiliation element.

 Hi, sorry for the very late reply. Thanks for the response.
I was referring to the wrong element, since i want sparse punctuation 
to be allowed in the <affiliation>.
I know it's a tight structured container, 
but it seems to me that even in this kind of elements (<author>,
similarly, comes to mind), 
db could have a mixed approach, permitting the use of:
 
punctuation spaces (0020 and 00A0)

Can you give an example of what you mean? I thought it already did allow
sparse punctuation:

<address>
John and Jane Doe
<street>100 Main Street</street>
<city>Anytown</city>, <state>NY</state> <postcode>12345</postcode>
<country>USA</country>
</address>
