#4731: Leading and trailing "blank" characters should be removed from tag values

 There is no need to have a leading or trailing whitespace character in the
 values of the tags.

 Potlatch 2 doesn't remove theses characters before sending the values to
 OSM.

 I believe it should, especially for the user-typed-in fields, typically
 "name".
 For example : I tested that the name of the
 [http://www.openstreetmap.org/browse/node/1863746907/history node
 1863746907] has a trailling whitespace, and that a edit session with
 Potlatch doesn't automatically remove it.
