strip trailing / leading whitespace before doing url bar autocomplete

something I found while playing with shawn's cool new download manager:  he strips off preceeding and trailing whitespace before doing the SQL for his "LIKE" statement (see downloads.js)

we could do the same thing, and it would fix the problem of:  I typed:  " google" or "google    ", why isn't it showing me google.com?

Bug 451915 - move Firefox/Places bugs to Firefox/Bookmarks and History. Remove all bugspam from this move by filtering for the string "places-to-b-and-h".

In Thunderbird 3.0b, you do that as follows:
Tools | Message Filters
Make sure the correct account is selected. Click "New"
Conditions: Body   contains   places-to-b-and-h
Change the action to "Delete Message".
Select "Manually Run" from the dropdown at the top.
Click OK.

Select the filter in the list, make sure "Inbox" is selected at the bottom, and click "Run Now". This should delete all the bugspam. You can then delete the filter.
