Auto-trim leading space for local Whisper models

I'm experiencing an issue where a leading space is always inserted at the beginning of the text when dictating with local Whisper models. (Windows Version)Tests I've done:This does NOT happen when using the Groq API (text is inserted perfectly without a space).Trying to fix it via LLM formatting prompts (e.g., instructing the AI to "remove leading spaces") doesn't work; the space still passes through.Impact: I prefer to process dictation locally to utilize my GPU, but having to manually delete that single leading space every time significantly disrupts the typing workflow and efficiency.Request: Please implement an "auto-trim" function that automatically strips any leading whitespaces from the final transcribed text right before it is inserted into the active window.This would dramatically improve the user experience for those of us using local models.

I'm using Superwhisper Ultra, all default settings on v2.14.0 and I consistently get a leading space that I have to go back and remove every time. Very annoying papercut, I can't flow when I'm constantly moving the cursor and post-editing.
