Hi,
When I looked at the natural sorting code (from FS#8314) the other
day, I noticed one small thing that seems a bit odd to me (and I
didn't see it mentioned in a quick read-through on the tracker):
should it really ignore differences in whitespace the way it does?
As an example, the following files (one file as one space in the name,
the other two have three):
A b.txt
A c.txt
A b.txt
get sorted like this with natural sorting enabled:
A b.txt
A b.txt
A c.txt
I can understand ignoring extra whitespace in front of numbers, but
I'm not sure about this... :)

Besides that people who have leading whitespaces in their filenames
should burn in hell, yes, that's intended behavior...and I don't see why
it should behave differently.
