I'm on the fence here, I like the idea of a strip flag, but I do agree that it 
seems too specific. Perhaps something more generic, eg:

myfield = models.CharField(max_length=255, text_filters=[StripFilter, 
UpperFilter])

The filters would chain into each other. I'm not sure I like the syntax though, 
seems a bit ugly. I do like the elegance of just having a strip flag.
