The str method strip is very popular, and the close relatives lstrip and rstrip are also used commonly. It would be good to have efficient primitives for them. I think there is no Python C API for these, but maybe we can adapt _PyUnicode_XStrip from CPython. Writing our own implementation wouldn't be too difficult either.
