I encounter difficulties in stripping the leading and trailing
whitespace from a node.
The following does not work for me, typesetting \CAST delivers an
empty result:
\def\Cast#1{\def\CAST{#1}}
\startxmlsetups xml:case:cast
\Cast{\xmlstrip{#1}{}}
\stopxmlsetups
nor do variants like:
\Cast{xmlstrip{#1}{*}}
\Cast{xmlstrip{#1}{/}}
\Cast{xmlstrip{#1}{/cast}}
What does work is:
\Cast{\xmlflush{#1}}
How do I proceed?

strip is applied to a node, but does not flush it, so you can appy
\xmlstrip and xmlflush in a row
or just:
\ignorespaces\xmlflush{#1}\removeunwantedspaces
