Richard Eckart de Castilho commented on UIMA-6152:
--------------------------------------------------
In the past, I have made bad experiences with Guava in relation to backwards
compatibility with itself. If we'd need a string manipulation library, I'd
suggest going with Apache Commons Text. However, I don't see how such a library
would come in here. This is not about string manipulation but about changing
annotation offsets.
> "trim" method for AnnotationFS

> Priority: Minor

> Usually leading or trailing whitespace is not helpful in text annotations.
> Thus, it would be nice to have a `trim()` convenience method on AnnotationFS
> which increases/decreases begin/end such that leading/trailing whitespace is
> removed from the annotation.
