Hello,

2 quick remarks concerning the patch:

  * type hints are written like #^String and not ^String
  * why ltrim / rtrim , but upper-case / lower-case ? Why not ltrim / rtrim
+ ucase / lcase , or left-trim right-trim + upper-case / lower-case ? Will
left-trim/right-trim be so often used that they must be shortened to
ltrim/rtrim (especially compared to upper-case / lower-case) ? Oh and also,
with some IDEs, having left-trim enables the possibility to write l-t and
then have autocomplete  work by expanding to left-trim (so it's more
readable, and it's even faster to write with the right tools :-) ).

My 0,02€,
