You left out one node:
ELEMENT: properties
TEXT: a line-feed and several spaces (before propone)
ELEMENT: propone
TEXT: aaaa
TEXT: a line-feed and several spaces (between propone and proptwo)
ELEMENT: proptwo
TEXT: bbbb
TEXT: a line-feed and several spaces (after proptwo)
Note: Xerces -- at least Xerces-J -- does have a nonstandard feature which
will let you suppress whitespace-in-element-context. However, that requires
that you validate the document against a DTD; without that information, XML
has absolutely no way of distinguishing that case, and must assume that the
whitespace could be important to your program.
