Is there an existing issue for this feature request?

I have searched the existing issues

I'm always frustrated when I am typing the name of a config item and every time I hit the space key, a message appears saying that the name can't end in a space. I can't believe anyone actually expects a filename to ever end in a space and this get this distracting message that does not help anything. In the browser, JavaScript has the trim() function that is used on all text input. All other modern languages (Java, C#, Python, etc.) all have a trim()/strip() method specifically to handle input like this.

This is a nit and there are more important features to be worked on but it tarnishes the polish on this otherwise great tool.

Which printers will be beneficial to this feature?

All

Describe the solution you'd like

Remove the check for spaces in names and just call trim on the input.

Describe alternatives you've considered

None. I will still use OrcaSlicer if this is not changed.

Additional context

Thank you for all you are doing to make 3D printing better.
