I've always thought it would be nice to have a different color for the space beneath the buffer in the window. So if I have a buffer with ``` this is the last line of text in the file ``` note the 2 blank lines at the bottom of the file displayed in a window that looks like ``` snth satoe this is the last line of text in the file ``` Note the 2 extra blank lines I'd like: ``` Normal Faces Normal Faces Normal Faces Normal Faces Normal Faces Face indicating not part of buffer Face indicating not part of buffer ``` Or something similar.
