Right, it would too risky to change rim() as it goes all the way back to 
JDK 1.0.

If you introduce a method named "trimWhitespace" then I think it would 
be a surprising if were not aligned with "isWhitespace". I also share 
Stuart's concerns about the handling of control characters in legacy 
trim (or TWS in the proposal). Can you expand a bit on why UWS was 
recommended?
