No. I mean like what I linked to. There you'll
find a succinct description. I think you'll be
able to see a real difference from
`highlight-regexp' (`hi-lock-face-buffer').

And the Commentary in highlight-chars.el offers
quite a bit more detail.

But yes, hi-lock.el offers some improvement over
the hard-coded behavior of `nobreak-char-display'
and `whitespace-mode'.
