'trailingEmptyStrict' was for X12 if I recall. It is not valid to have trailing separators.
'never' I don't have an example for.

Users of Apache Daffodil have asked what these property values are for, i.e., what are idiomatic uses of this property for actual formats, or in other words, what kind of data are these properties needed for?

I'd like to provide them examples of this if anyone can recall the kinds of specific use cases for these property values.

I've been searching through the example DFDL schemas I can find, and none use trailingEmptyStrict or never for this property.
