#917 closed defect (fixed)

superCleanString() strips extended characters

Reported by: dstillman Owned by: simon
Priority: critical Milestone: 1.0.4
Component: data layer Version: 1.0
Keywords: Cc: stakats

Description

superCleanString() currently strips all non-ASCII characters from the beginning and end of strings, so it can't be used for processing imported text.

Either it needs to be changed to blacklist rather than whitelist characters (say, punctuation and control characters) or else all calls to it that run on imported text (and aren't simply, say, for use in conditionals) in translators need to be changed to trim().
