Hi:

In my tests inside extend_face_to_end_of_line the flag ends_at_zv_p is
always false. And for the last line (where it is supposed to be true)
the function extend_face_to_end_of_line is not called at all. So
actually all the code like:

	      if (it->glyph_row->ends_at_zv_p)
		it->face_id = default_face->id;
	      else
		it->face_id = face->id;

does nothing now.

We should fix this in order to create an indicator also for the last
line.

I think that the problem is in the condition:

if (!get_next_display_element (it)) inside display_line that filters the
call to  extend_face_to_end_of_line with:

if (row->reversed_p
    || lookup_basic_face (it->w, it->f, DEFAULT_FACE_ID) !=
    DEFAULT_FACE_ID)
      extend_face_to_end_of_line (it);

And needs to be extended probably with with:

|| (!row_text_area_empty (row))
