I think your best bet is to NOT use string, use
something like:
<fieldType name="lowercase" class="solr.TextField"
sortMissingLast="true" omitNorms="true">
<analyzer>
<!-- KeywordTokenizer does no actual tokenizing, so the entire
input string is preserved as a single token
-->
<tokenizer class="solr.KeywordTokenizerFactory"/>
<!-- The LowerCase TokenFilter does what you expect, which can be
when you want your sorting to be case insensitive
-->
<filter class="solr.LowerCaseFilterFactory" />
<!-- The TrimFilter removes any leading or trailing whitespace -->
<filter class="solr.TrimFilterFactory" />
</fieldType
The TrimFilterFactory is optional here. this will do what you need.
Of course you'll have to re-index.
