As far as I can tell, Firefox highlights a space at the end of the line only if 
there is an actual space (ascii 32), but not if there's an explicit newline.  
In other words, it highlights over continuation lines, but not over explicit 
newlines.

That is to say, we highlight this (with show-paren-mode and visual-line-mode, 
assuming the line is too long to fit in the window):

(test test test test test test test test test test test test test test test 
test test test test test test test test test test)

the same way as this:

(test test test test test test test test test test test test test test test
test test test test test test test test test test)

Whereas firefox highlights the end-of-line blank only in the first case, right 
where the line wraps.

Clément.
