In one template of my XSL stylesheet I'd like to match a text node with certain properties. Namely, the template should match for any text node where the nearest preceding non-empty text node is farther away than (= comes before) the nearest preceding <pb/> (page-break milestone element).

 <xsl:template
   match="text()[preceding::text()[1] >> preceding::pb[1]]">
