Bug Description
Bug Description:
It's very easy to think that you need to add a ", " ie app1, app2. However the client then looks for an app with a space in front of it and fails.
If the helper text is updated to include, "comma separated with no spaces" I think it would act as a reminder.
Version:
OS:
64bit natty
Browser:
ff 6.0.1
Problem URL:
https:/
Steps To Reproduce:
1. goto the link above
2. add multiple app names with a ", " (comma space) as you would with python
Expected Result:
With the extra description added it should be obvious to the person adding apps that there should be no space

I think we should fix that in the client too? But either way...

We can easily clean the input there to make it easier. For eg:
"one, two, three" becomes "one,two,three", or even
"one, two three" becomes "one,two,three" etc.
