.. "Reduce strings to letters and numbers from ASCII-96 is selected".
also, a title like "just a new-york conversation"
with "just" and "a" as strings to remove will give
just-new-york-conversation (as far as I know)

is it possible to delete also the first "just" or is there a reason for this behaviour ?
or perhaps something I guess about the parser used to find occurences :-) ?

Are you sure this is happening with 6.x-2.x-dev? It was fixed for 5.x-2.3 and 6.x-1.1, so if it's doing this again now, it's regressed. :(

I think it still happens in all versions, but not consistently because it depends on php version/compile options...which makes it really hard to debug...

I seem to be getting the same problem. 'Strings to Remove' leaves hanging separators in things like [menupath-raw]. For example, with 'aabd' set as a string to remove, links like 'About AABD > AABD Committees' become about-/-committees. [Workaround: add 'aabd ' and ' aabd' (note included spaces) both as strings to remove.]

@ capnhairdo: Does this no longer happen in 6.x-2.x? If so, feel free to comment and downgrade the issue again. If not, it should be fixed in 6.x-2.x first and then 6.x-1.x. Also, your issue is not the same (the issue doesn't mention "hanging separators"), though an issue similar to yours already exist somewhere in the queue.

Since there's been no actual activity on the issue for more than 4 months, I'm closing it.
