Yeah! Someone's still using it! First my command-line tool was 
obsoleted, now my Invisibles. Snuffle.

But actually, the Show Invisibles does show tabs (though not spaces). 
Is that insufficient? Or do you want the markings brighter?

My big issue with the built-in Show Invisibles is that pesky 
'illegal' characters are hard to see, whereas in my 
Invisibles.tmbundle, they were in hot red. Otherwise, it's far 
superior to see the invisibles along with other syntax coloring...
