IMO, it's too early to discuss such an option: we don't yet know how
this feature will end up in Emacs 27 and beyond, because we didn't yet
have enough user feedback.  What we have now is similar to how other
programs behave, including highlighting of the space beyond EOL.  Does
it irritate you in those other programs as well?
