I'd hope that browser developers would think of that and limit the length and/or trim whitespace...
Sometimes yes, sometimes no.
Probably not with whitespace, but I've seen lots of times other stuff being used to lengthen the name artificially... such as "OH NOES! CLICK OK TO CONTINUE THIS IS A SAFE PAGE. YOU CAN WIN MONEY IF YOU CLICK NEXT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! WDZ IS DA LAZYN355!" ETC.
How about kjust doing as KeyStorm said? Permanently banning all users that try that?
