Template returns catPath with whitespace

Hello,

Just reporting a little problem I encountered today. I've set up a template to allow my client to select a default category for a page.

Template:

<perch:categories id="category" set="products" label="Category">
    <perch:category id="catPath" />
</perch:categories>

On the master page, this is the part that uses the template:

perch_shop_products([
    'template' => 'products/product_list.html',
    'category' => perch_content('Default Category', true),
    'count' => 9,
]);

This took the whitespace in the template file into account (so didn't display the results):

SELECT DISTINCT idx.itemID FROM perch2_shop_index idx
JOIN perch2_shop_products main ON idx.itemID=main.productID
AND idx.itemKey='productID' 
AND ((idx.indexKey='_category'
AND idx.indexValue LIKE '\r\n   products/collection-iv/\r\n%' 
OR idx.indexKey='_category' 
AND idx.indexValue='\r\n    products/collection-iv/\r\n'))

Solution 1: stripping whitespace from the path

perch_shop_products([
    'template' => 'products/product_list.html',
    'category' => trim(perch_content('Default Category', true)),
    'count' => 9,
]);

Solution 2: removing the whitespace in the template file

<perch:categories id="category" set="products" label="Category"><perch:category id="catPath" /></perch:categories>

Both solutions return the expected results

SELECT DISTINCT idx.itemID FROM perch2_shop_index idx 
JOIN perch2_shop_products main ON idx.itemID=main.productID
AND idx.itemKey='productID' 
AND ((idx.indexKey='_category' 
AND idx.indexValue LIKE 'products/collection-iv/%' 
OR idx.indexKey='_category' 
AND idx.indexValue='products/collection-iv/'))
