Description

Overview

We have a group that manually creates new issues for us. Occasionally they don't pay close attention and will create new issues that contain a leading space in the Subject field. This doesn't affect basic functionality, but when attempting to sort on the Subject field we get back unexpected results. We finally figured out that the issue is caused by the leading space in the Subject line.

Does Redmine intentionally provide support for creating issues with leading spaces or is this a case where it fails to strip leading/trailing spaces from that field when creating new issues? I assume the latter and am filing this report accordingly.

Thank you for your time.
