No, of course. You may put a whitespaced username into DB, sure! But TCA
tells us a username is not thought to contain whitespaces. As such, from
my point of view the TCA is "how it is supposed to be", no matter what
other parts of the code or way you find to do it otherwise.

This is the reason why, trimming the username upon login form submit
would make sense IMHO, just as converting it to lowercase.

Kind regards
