I haven't tried the patch yet, but I can tell you that (on my system) 
the other "half" of the problem is there before the patch.

That is, the trailing whitespace on a new line goes without highlight. I 
was under the (wrong?) impression that this was desired and that the 
whitespace highlighting was a bug. No?

(in fact, it might be useful if the trailing "screen space" is *not* 
highlighted. That makes it easy to X-ray trailing whitespace buried in 
the changeset)
