Description Mason James 2014-11-27 10:05:53 UTC 
We have been bumping into a few problems recently, with users creating z39 entries with accidential hidden space ' ' characters in various field, which cause difficult to detect failures :/

it would be a good thing to strip leading/training whitespace in fields, when saving Z39 entries - to avoid this problem

I should clarify that the accidental ' ' chars are a user (PEBKAC) error,
rather than a bug in Koha itself
