My initial request was to restore an ability to fold whitespace.
One way to do this is to implement symmetric char folding.
However, I believe that the same could be achieved with just
char-fold-ad-hoc providing a suitable set of mappings.  I'll confirm
whether this is achievable after adding char-fold-ad-hoc.
