FWIW I disagree.  Most people who enable show-trailing-whitespace
globally just do it because they like their files to be "whitespace
clean", and couldn't care less about "whitespace cleanliness" of
internally generated text as long as it doesn't make its way into
their files.

So I think it would be good to set show-trailing-whitespace to nil in
such packages known to output trailing whitespace in their
special buffers.
