To be more precise, the comment Mario meant is probably this part of
definition of `whitespace-display-mappings':
--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
;; WARNING: the mapping below has a problem.
;; When a TAB occupies exactly one column, it will display the
;; character ?\xBB at that column followed by a TAB which goes to
;; the next TAB column.
;; If this is a problem for you, please, comment the line below.
(tab-mark ?\t [?ยป ?\t] [?\\ ?\t]) ; tab - right guillemet
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---
Does anyone know why the workaround given there is not turned on by
default? Or maybe it should be made a user option?
Best,
