So I've ended up writing a little piece of code to remove whitespace text nodes:
public static void removeWhitespaceNodes(Branch a_branch)
{
for (int i = 0; i < a_branch.nodeCount(); i++)
{
Node checkNode = a_branch.node(i);
if (checkNode.getNodeType() == Node.TEXT_NODE)
{
if (checkNode.getText().trim().equals(""))
{
checkNode.detach();
}
} else if (checkNode.getNodeType() == Node.ELEMENT_NODE)
{
removeWhitespaceNodes((Element)checkNode);
}
}
}
