Could the View -> Show Invisible Characters be made to apply in the Global Find dialog, especially in the Find and Replace fields?

This is non-trivial since the Find and Replace fields are system controls, so we’d need to override system behavior to try and achieve this (not something I have looked into, but in general customizing NSTextField is not easy).

There are times when not knowing there's a space can really really screw up your global replacement (ask me how I know that!)...

Is that a space in the Replace field? The current nightly build uses a different background color for matches, that way, one can see if leading/trailing space is being matched.
