Subject: 24.3; `whitespace-line-column' should be a safe file-local variable
Date: Mon, 15 Jun 2015 17:18:23 +0200

Create a file that has `whitespace-line-column' as file-local variable.
Upon loading the file, the prompt for applying this unsafe variable
appears.  I think the variable could be marked safe if it's either an
integer or nil.

Looks like this has been fixed in the years since this bug was filed:

  This variable is safe as a file local variable if its value
  satisfies the predicate ‘integerp’.

It's only for integerp, not nil, though.
