I grasp that now.  Not really a problem.  Would like to ask for a function of 
two that can set the background colour used for the whitespace styles defined 
by the mode.  Additionally, how about improving the default background colour 
contrast with the background colour of the theme (whether light on dark).  For 
tabs, the contrast is quite low.  Can only see the tab-mark actually!
