R. David Murray added the comment:

Good catch.  Yes, it is already documented that Int ignores leading and trailing whitespace.

But, even that isn't quite correct:

>>> 'A'.isdecimal()
False
>>> int('A', 16)
10

I seem to vaguely recall a discussion somewhere in this tracker about what "should" count as digits for larger-than-decimal radii, but I don't remember the outcome.
