The common name in certificates from Black Helicopter contains a many spaces, like:
  "Firstname Lastname                                                "
                     ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

The solution would be trim whitespace from the strings whenever we display a string.

Are their arguments why trimming whitespace would not be a good idea?
