RE: [xsl] How to capture text?

As far as I can see you are trying to get all the text nodes other than
whitespace text nodes and text:user-field-get text nodes, so I would do:

<xsl:strip-space elements="*"/>

<xsl:template match="text:user-field-get"/>

<xsl:template match="text()">
  <aid><xsl:value-of select="normalize-space(.)"/></aid>
</xsl:template>
