On "strip keyword arg for CharField" >From http://code.djangoproject.com/ticket/4960 09/14/07 11:28:49 changed by adrian {{{ Marking as wontfix -- it's too specialized for inclusion in the main library. A bunch of us in #django-sprint agreed. }}}
We should think about this decision again. The cc list of #6362 is quite long. A lot of people (and me) want something like this. Ten characters (strip=True), I don't want to type more for this, since I would use it for 98% of all my CharFields.
