Throughout the tutorials, the user is instructed to copy a name from the tutorial and 
change the default name when creating a new element. If I double click the name in the 
tutorial, then paste it into the IDE, the name often has a trailing blank. The error message 
says the name is not valid, but it looks valid because the trailing blank is not obvious. 
Better to automatically trim whatever the user enters, before validating the name format.
