Comment:

 Replying to [comment:2 steven_watanabe]:
 > This is definitely not a bug.  The function is behaving exactly as
 expected.  From the documentation, "trim_all removes all trailing and
 leading spaces from a sequence (string).  In addition, spaces in the
 middle of the sequence are truncated to just one character."  In this
 case, you're defining "whitespace" to be a set of characters.  It sounds
 like the function that you really want is std::remove_copy_if.

 I agree. Despite having opened this bug 8 months ago, I cannot see this as
 a bug today. Not even for the documentation. As you state: "The function
 is behaving exactly as expected." I change the severity to "Not
 Applicable" as I cannot close the ticket myself.
