Hmm... how about we pick one and mark the other as deprecated - then we 
can move towards *not* having two equivalent methods...

I'd suggest one, but I don't think I really have any strong feeling in 
either direction.  #withBlanksTrimmed seems more appropriate for 
something that returns a new object rather than modifying the receiver, 
but then String isn't consistent in this regard anyway and #trimBlanks 
is shorter... :)
