Minor Annoyance - Waypoint Searches & Spaces

Just a minor nit ... often I'll cut & paste a waypoint name from a forum message into the search by waypoint feature. Often, depending on how I selected the text, I get a trailing space when I paste. If I press search, there are no matches found because of the space.

 

It would be nice to trim the waypoint name on either side before the search. Yes, I'm too lazy to select backspace after pasting. :-)

 

Told you it was a minor nit.

You made about 360 keystrokes to post your minor nit. thats 180 front and back space deletes. You should have saved the strokes for something useful :mad:

Yeah, but think of the thousands of times this is done each day. Thousands of extra keystrokes wasted each day, when the time could be used for other things like solving world hunger, coming up with a new energy source, curing cancer, or releasing a new solution to the locationless cache problem. Imagine the possibilities.

In the ranking of solutions I'm glad that locationess caches are at the end of that. We'll have to raise the membership fees to get those other things done, I'm afraid.
