Use case

Trimming User Input

In some cases, a user may copy/paste from another source.  The string that was copied may have several spaces of blank space at the end, and the user may not realize it.  This could present challenges later on for reporting or finding entries, as the empty spaces are not expected.  This component can normalize the inputs and remove the blank spaces on either side of the input.
