Comment:

 Just to make it clear the `strip=True` option was added to
 `forms.CharField` and not `db.CharField` like the report seems to imply.
 Moving this option to the database layer has been discussed and rejected
 when the option was added to the form layer so I doubt there's consensus
 on adding an option to specialize `TextField` here given striping spaces
 should be the desired behaviour in most cases just like with
 `db.CharField`.

 > Other people fix it in the form and override the admin form

 Can't this be simply done with
 
[https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/2.1/ref/contrib/admin/#django.contrib.admin.ModelAdmin.formfield_overrides
 formfield_overrides] or `formfield_for_dbfield`?
