CDATA is not part of the XML information set or of the XPath data model.
It's simply a convenient way of entering text that avoids having to escape
all the "<" characters as "&lt;". Therefore, CDATA boundaries can't be
preserved through the transformation.

But you can indicate that you want CDATA used in the output using the
cdata-section-elements attribute of xsl:output.
