New submission from Jérôme Laurens:
The documentation for xml.etree.ElementTree.Element.text reads "If the element is created from an XML file the attribute will contain any text found between the element tags."
import xml.etree.ElementTree as ET
root3 = ET.fromstring('<a><b/>TEXT</a>')
print(root3.text)
CURRENT OUTPUT
None
"TEXT" is between the elements tags but does not appear in the output
BTW : this is well formed xml and has nothing to do with tail.
