Well, I said there were two approaches, turning the text into elements or
turning the elements into text. I chose the first, you chose the second.
Personally, I find using magic strings like @xyxy rather inelegant.

Your solution uses tokenize(). I think either approach will require explicit
recursion in XSLT 1.0. Whether you regard recursion as easy to implement
seems to be a matter where opinions (and skills) vary greatly.
