I see - thanks :)  I typically keep whitespace visible as well and it  
helps ease the concern Matthias quoted, but I would still maintain  
that this does not resolve the original issue (of creating a clearer  
distinction between gutter and edit area).  Perhaps that issue won't  
be resolved ultimately, but there you have it.
