whitespace stripped from the names of keystone objects

[wanghong]

Currently, the name of project and user has been stripped, however the name of domain, group, service, role does not.

This doesn't have enough detail to be considered a bug, much less reproducible - please be MUCH more specific about what you're referring to.

An example of creating user:
curl -i -H "X-Auth-Token:admin" -H "Content-Type:application/json" http://127.0.0.1:35357/v3/users -d '{"user":{"name":" test "}}'

{"user": {"name": "test", "links": {"self": "http://192.168.70.108:5000/v3/users/292a99153cae4b70ade647b8ea90e9b4"}, "enabled": true, "id": "292a99153cae4b70ade647b8ea90e9b4", "domain_id": "default"}}

And another example of creating domain:
curl -i -H "X-Auth-Token:admin" -H "Content-Type:application/json" http://127.0.0.1:35357/v3/domains -d '{"domain":{"name":" test "}}'

{"domain": {"enabled": true, "id": "c9326fb776e44ac2bfa404957e92d89c", "links": {"self": "http://192.168.70.108:5000/v3/domains/c9326fb776e44ac2bfa404957e92d89c"}, "name": " test "}}

Please note the *name* parameter in request and response body. " test " will be stripped when creating user, but it does not when creating domain.

Ah, stripping whitespace. I'm not really a fan of that behavior (nor of manipulating any user input), but is it really harming anything?

1. I think normal users will not name an object with whitespaces at beginning or end of the string
2. The behavior should be Consistent for all keystone objects
3. It is not possible to distinguish the names if I get list via keystone-client-cmd, for example:
keystone role-list

The one of the testx above is "testx" and another is "testx ".
