Bug Description
Testing platform: bugs.edge.
When copying & pasting bug numbers you can often end up with a trailing space in the clipboard, Malone should strip the space after the bug number because otherwise you get the message "number is not a valid bug number or nickname."

A good way to fix this would be to use a special form field that only looks at a continuous sequence of digits and discards everything else. I'm not sure how this should work with bug 'nicknames', which allow all alphanumeric characters, though.
