[Message part 2 (message/rfc822, inline)]

From: Philipp Stephani <p.stephani2 <at> gmail.com>

Subject: 24.3; Variable `whitespace-style': documentation and custom choices
 inconsistent
Date: Thu, 16 Apr 2015 11:17:38 +0200

The documentation of the `whitespace-style' variable mentions the
following possible symbols:

big-indent
empty
face
indentation
indentation::space
indentation::tab
lines
lines-tail
newline
newline-mark
space-after-tab
space-after-tab::space
space-after-tab::tab
space-before-tab
space-before-tab::space
space-before-tab::tab
space-mark
spaces
tab-mark
tabs
trailing

However, the available customization choices are only:

big-indent
empty
face
indentation
lines
newline
newline-mark
space-after-tab
space-before-tab
space-mark
spaces
tab-mark
tabs
trailing

Also for the type of the customization option, `set' would be more
appropriate than `repeat'.
