A few days ago I had already composed an e-mail to this list that my tagname 
wasn't working in a URL. Fortunately I had the insight that there may have been 
an invisible character in the tagname before I clicked the send button. It 
turned out to be a space at the end of the tagname; I wonder if there is 
something in the web interface that makes this particularly easy to get -- I 
certainly didn't intend for a space to be there. This is a tag that I had 
created from the command line, and then moved (deleted and added) to a 
different checkin using the Edit Check-in web interface (with Safari).

So, stripping spaces and control character from the ends of tagnames seems like 
a great idea to me!
