Description of problem:

Trailing spaces and accidentally-copied pilcrow (newline) characters in software strings to be localized. 

See the screenshots in attachments. 

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):

3.0

How reproducible:

100%

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Open a newly created software strings localization project
2. Notice the unnecessary spaces and newline characters
3. This causes issues when the translated strings are then placed into the software GUI

Actual results:

Trailing spaces and accidentally-copied pilcrow (newline) characters in software strings to be localized. 

Expected results:

No trailing spaces on string lines, and no newline characters.

Issac,

Do you think the best way to address this is providing a validator that check for excessive picow?
