I think you can only use one modifier at a time. So we would need
uristringtrim or your solution with a temporary variable.

The syntax is different, though:

set p ${product:stringtrim}
echo ${p:uristring}
-- 
main(a){char*c=/*    Schoene Gruesse                         */"B?IJj;MEH"
"CX:;",b;for(a/*    Chris           get my mail address:    */=0;b=c[a++];)
putchar(b-1/(/*               gcc -o sig sig.c && ./sig    */b/42*2-3)*42);}
