Describe the enhancement and the motivation for it.
Being able to toggle the diff viewer to show whitespace characters would be a huge bonus. My company's policy on whitespace characters being consistent throughout a file.

What operating system are you using? What browser?
Windows 2008R2. Chrome.

Please provide any additional information below.
I'm basically looking for the same functionality one can see when using vim...

:set list
:set nolist

You can see ^I for tabs, spaces are spaces, EOL is $...

Thanks!
