Allow the validation of data in the Edge UI to ignore spaces between entries rather than issuing an error message indicating that the data is incorrect

It is useful because it is often better to use spaces after a comma to aid readability.

This is relevant for the Alt Communication Information and Alt-com outbound where the validation regards a space after the comma separating out more than one entry to be an error.

What is your industry? Banking
How will this idea be used?

It will make entering data in these fields (configuration of partner nodes) less stressful, in that the only issue is that here is a space.
