Yeah, I don't think that's an option. My use case is, I'm coloring tab
characters with different colors for multiple segments within the
character. So to do that, I'm setting the tab's display property to a
number of spaces equal to the width of the tab, and then I'm coloring the
spaces separately. But, the entire point is that I'm coloring whitespace,
so it has to set the background color.

That's a possibility. I'll have to think about that.
Thanks for the help.
