Follow-up Comment #2, bug #13146 (project mc): well, tabs should stay tabs. masking them away in this special case would just lead to surprises. not sure about your example. it's true that it looks a bit weird. otoh, such whitespace is plainly broken, so it should look broken. :) also, if you change it, suddenly chars in the middle of a line will vanish/appear if you (append past/remove up to) the trailing tabs. it depends on whether one wants to get the static or the dynamic case nicer. the patch is really simple, so give it a try. after all, i have no particular opinion on this matter - i need to highlight trailing whitespace only to annihilate any occurrences of it anyway. :-)=)
