Perhaps a better approach is not to worry about
space normalization at all, and use a CSS style
sheet to control formatting for display. You have
much finer control and you've removed presentation
concerns from the code that produces the content.
foo.xqy:
<html>
<head>
<title>Test</title>
<link rel="stylesheet" href="foo.css" media="screen" />
</head>
<body>
<input type="text" value="" />
<select>
<option>One</option>
<option>Two</option>
</select>
<input type="submit" value="Go" />
</body>
</html>
foo.css:
input {
margin-right: 2em;
}
select {
margin-right: 2em;
}

Yep, that's what I was looking for.
It's still a bit ugly:
<input type="text" value="" />
{ ' ' }
<select>
<option>One</option>
<option>Two</option>
</select>
{ ' ' }
<input type="submit" value="Go" />
But it's better than something like:
<input type="text" value="" /> <select>
<option>One</option>
<option>Two</option>
</select> <input type="submit" value="Go" />
Much thanks,

In the later example, white space nodes around the curly braces and

Oh, and I forgot... You should be able to get what you want using
this (not tested):
<p>
{ <b>hi</b> }
{ ' ' }
<span class="blah">there</span>
</p>
