Koha extracts text from text nodes and makes them available for translators to
translate. This can cause problems when the text needs to be the same for all
languages. For example, when an HTML tag is built using XSLT, the values of its
attributes should not be translated.

One solution is to put the text in a xsl:value-of element instead of a text
node. This patch is a quick test to see if there is a more general solution.
When entering certain tags it treats text nodes as CDATA (it's also possible to
make it a COMMENT, UNKNOWN, or a new token type).

It increments and decrements the status to try and handle nested tags, but it
might be necessary to make a more robust solution.

Is there interest in developing this solution further? Are there cases where
text should be translated in xsl:attribute?
