I can filter out the empty "row"'s by challenging the contents of the entire
element by:
<xsl:value-of select="count(/root/row[normalize-space()])"/>

But how do I exclude an element "row" if just a single "column" in the
element is empty?

For "exclude those with at least one empty column":

   count(/root/row[not(column[not(normalize-space())])])
   "count rows without columns without space"

For "exclude those with exactly one empty column":

   count(/root/row[not(count(column[not(normalize-space())]=1))])
   "count rows without a single column without space"

I hope this helps.
