Of course, setting the color of all "special virtual characters" would 
be a nice feature request for Scintilla.  Some others are the line 
ending characters (black CR and LF boxes, not to be confused with the 
whitespace markers, which are horizontal arrows), and I believe there 
are other "non-printable" characters that Scintilla can display.  All of 
them are styled as normal characters, as if they were a part of the 
document.

The color of indentation markers can already be set, I'm not sure about 
the whitespace markers, or line wrap markers.
