Change apparance of whitespace dot to something bi

I am looking for a way to change the appearance of the whitespace grey dot to something bigger and darker (without changing the background color) -- similar to UltraEdit (see screenshot).

I've read all the popular threads on the issue, and I've tried all the popular modifications (e.g., plugins, and/or changing the language and theme files), but I haven't found a way to darken the grey dot or make it any bigger.

I've already experimented with everything mentioned in this related thread, including the links set forth therein: Sublime Text 2: how to change white space characters color?

Someone bumped a post on the ST forum about coloring white space and I thought of this post. You may see it too, but just in case, I'll post here. Basically they modified the tmLanguage file to give a new scope to leading whitespace. They then applied a color to that.

There is no solution to this issue.
