When entering users by copy/paste from a document, our dearest doze has a habit of adding a space to the end of a double-click selection ... this results in usernames such as 'myuser ' ... which is causing us issues.

Could the usernames be trimmed of all whitespace before being added?

Usernames are now trimmed when creating users.

If you create a backup with a user that has not been trimmed (ie: from an old version) you may get this error message when importing into a version of confluence that has this fix.

[sf.hibernate.util.JDBCExceptionReporter] logExceptions Unique constraint violation: SYS_CT_163 in statement [insert into os_user (username, passwd, id) values (?, ?, ?)]

This is because the username is trimmed when importing which causes the duplication problem.
