Okay, I get it: Emacs (especially vanilla) just doesn't meet your
requirements.  So be it!  Horse for courses, as they say here in the
UK.  All I can say is that I find most, if not all, other tools so
frustrating.  I can never get them to work the way I want.  With Emacs,
I can.  Yes, this means that I have to work at customizing and this is
not easy for a beginner.  But I can.

One minor point, in case anybody else reading this thread might find
this useful:

>> What about turning on whitespace-mode?

As with all things Emacs, this is completely customizable.  You can have
whitespace mode show/highlight the bits you want and not the others.
