Stripping of trailing whitespace affects only some files; no UI indication which types #1698

What Happened?

The AppMenu has an option "Strip trailing whitespace on save" which implies that this happens for all documents, which is not the case.

Steps to Reproduce

Activate the stripping option
Create a .txt file with trailing whitespace
Save it
Observe whitespace not stripped

Expected Behavior

The description of the option should include an indication of which file types it applies too or, better, there should be an option for the user to specify which types it applies to (see #617)
