I think this would be bug #589366:
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=589366

However, as I said there, I think we want to highlight *changes* in
trailing (and probably leading) whitespace, not just the trailing
whitespace. No one wants their entire file lighting up because the
whitespace was already there, but you *do* want to avoid committing
new trailing whitespace yourself.

cheers,
Kai
