One might need to preserve space for output formating but trim space for
testing conditions. Also, I wonder does normalize-space preserve a
single space? For example,
<anode> foo bar </anode>
What would normalize-space do to the above node?
'foo bar', ' foo bar ', 'foo bar'.

Correction:
match="node[xalan:trim(string(.))='anyValue']"
why would you use an extension function rather than just
normalize-space() which probably does more or less the same thing in
these cases?
