RE:  Difference between <when>x</when> and  <when><text
A correction, details and a guess on implementation:

Whitespace-only text nodes in the stylesheet should be ignored, unless an ancestor node contains the xml:space="preserve" directive. <xsl:text> elements automatically imply xml:space="preserve" to the XSLT processor.

That's correct behaviour. Whitespace text nodes in the stylesheet should be
ignored, unless the parent node is an xsl:text element.
