Mmm.. I think space replacing doesn't deal (at all?) with trimming.
When I'm programming with a language X and I need to trim I search for
a function that does that job, when I need to strip away spaces I
usually replace that character with an empty string.
If we like the smallest size possible for jquery.js then I think this
would be the last thing we have to put into.
