Pass trims whitespace

[Iago-lito]

Hello,

     I am sorry I received no feedback on this thread because maybe I 
somehow missed a few e-mails from the list. Has it had any sequels? Or 
maybe on freenode?

     If I actually write a patch myself, how would I test it and submit it?

     Cheers to y'all :)
