Hello and sorry for the long silence, I somehow completely missed your reply.
lxml.objectify drops leading whitespace before a tag:
It is intentional. For data binding the text content of elements with children is (usually) irrelevant.
def makeparser(**kw): u"""makeparser(remove_blank_text=True, **kw)
Perfect, that works just fine. I totally missed that reading the documentation. Thank you very much! Wolfgang
