Whitespace *IS* a Text Node, per the definitions of the XML infoset and the DOM.
It's up to your application to decide whether whitespace is or isn't meaningful
in this location and ignore it.

If you're validating against a DTD which says that element has only other
elements as content, so the parser knows the whitespace is not meaningful, I
believe Xerces has an option which lets you use that information to suppress it.
(SAX calls this "ignorable whitespace", though that's misleading; the proper
term is "whitespace in element content".)
