Instead of reporting, the new whitespace-mode displays visually the bogus whitespace. Ok, we know what the old whitespace-buffer does. And we know what the new whitespace-mode does. Is it ok if the new whitespace-buffer is removed? What does the new whitespace-buffer do? How does it differ from whitespace-mode? Can you make it provide the features of the old whitespace-buffer?
