I'm not against the highlighting of trailing whitespace, most of the
time i do actually want to be notified of it. The problem is that the
syntax highlighting code considers all spaces to be "trailing
whitespace" while the user is typing them. It's like a bell going off
every time you press the spacebar.

I have no idea if it's possible to specify "don't complain about
trailing whitespace when the cursor is at the end of the line", but if
it is that seems like it would be the best solution. That way it
wouldn't complain about spaces while typing, but after going on to the
next line if there were still trailing spaces it would correctly
complain.
