that does not seem to be a problem since that may be solved
with your solution on a node basis (Joga's input was in a
<p> node):

$ cat inp1.xml
<p>a, b, <i>c, d</i></p>
$ xpath "count(/p/node())" inp1.xml
2
$ xpath "/p/node()[1]" inp1.xml
a, b,
$ xpath "/p/node()[2]" inp1.xml
<i>c, d</i>
$
$ cat inp2.xml
<p>a, b, <i>c</i>d</p>
$ xpath "count(/p/node())" inp2.xml
3
$ xpath "/p/node()[1]" inp2.xml
a, b,
$ xpath "/p/node()[2]" inp2.xml
<i>c</i>
$ xpath "/p/node()[3]" inp2.xml
d
$

  So your input structure is driven by both the input's structure
and the input's string value format.  The answer thus depends on
how both relate to each other.  What if you have something like:

    a, b, <i>c, d</i>

or:

    a, b, <i>c</i>d

?

  For your initial sample and the first sample here above, you
should be able to use something like this (not tested!):

    <xsl:template match="node()" mode="my:tokenize" priority="10">
       <xsl:variable name="nodes" as="item()+">
          <xsl:next-match/>
       </xsl:variable>
       <xsl:for-each select="$nodes">
          <a>
             <xsl:sequence select="."/>
          </a>
       </xsl:for-each>
    </xsl:template>

    <xsl:template match="text()" mode="my:tokenize">
       <xsl:value-of select="tokenize(., '\s*,\s*')"/>
    </xsl:template>

    <xsl:template match="i|b" mode="my:tokenize">
       <xsl:for-each select="tokenize(., '\s*,\s*')">
          <xsl:copy>
             <xsl:value-of select="."/>
          </xsl:copy>
       </xsl:for-each>
    </xsl:template>
