------------------------------------------------

> Won't it be problematic when looking at windows file system? 

Configuration is not a part of file system API.  It should support generic 
usage.

When I worked on HADOOP-2461, I think that the property names should be trimmed 
but not the values.  Otherwise, it forbids the potential use of leading and 
trailing spaces.  If there is a need, the codes using the conf values should do 
the trimming.

> New lines and leading spaces are not trimmed of a value when configuration is 
> read
