This PR is related to the issue stated in https://github.com/martinblech/xmltodict/issues/361. I have found that some users do expect the whitespace within an element to be stripped. In the linked PR in the issue I found that this change was done on purpose. To make everyone happy I suggest adding another property that removes this white space from the content of the elements called strip_whitespace_content. Let me know what you think and if this is something that could be merged.
Based on the comments on my issue it seems that more people would like some feature of stripping the content of the elements as well.
