Ahh - and that is a use case for the zero-length elements (tokens)
generated when the separator pattern is matched directly at the start or
end of a string. I was wondering about that behaviour, and it was
actually my first pitfall in my initial attempt at a solution.
Thanks to all who responded so quickly! I'll make an xsl:function and
pick one of the implementations. Since that function will not be called
often, I guess I will not see a measurable (or better: relevant)
performance difference.
